Caribou Coffee Heads to Clearwater

With more than 750 locations in 11 countries, Caribou Coffee is continuing to grow its footprint in the Greater Tampa Bay area. One new location is preparing to launch soon in Clearwater , at 1700 Gulf to Bay Boulevard .

The Clearwater opening is part of an expansion that has thus far included locations in St. Petersburg and in Palm Harbor , a move celebrated by Caribou Coffee CEO John Butcher in a press release last year:

“Over the past 30 years, Caribou Coffee has refined and elevated the guest experience through an unwavering commitment to quality, as well as strategic investments in innovation. With a shared vision and commitment to Caribou’s core values, we’re thrilled to be further expanding our footprint nationwide alongside such experienced and passionate operators, and we look forward to supporting their success.”

Behind the Clearwater location is Michelle Mathis of Wake Up 727 LLC . Under Mathis’s watch, Clearwater’s Caribou location will soon be serving up the brand’s capacious menu of coffee drinks—whether you’re in the mood for familiar espresso-based classics or Caribou signature beverages like the White Chocolate Espresso Shaker, the Cold Press with Oatmilk Cold Foam, or the brand’s blended drink, the Coffee Caribou Cooler.
