Everything you’d ask at the window - hours, bread, the cart, the kids’ corner, and pup cups.

Visiting Us

Where is Good Fruit Coffee located?

You’ll find our vintage camper at the historic Bearss Groves farm stand, 14316 Lake Magdalene Blvd, Tampa, FL 33618 - just minutes from Carrollwood, Lake Magdalene, and North Tampa.

Is there a pumpkin patch at Bearss Groves?

Yes - through October the farm stand runs a pumpkin patch under the big tent, open every day 8am to 7pm, weather permitting. Pumpkins of every size, corn stalks, and hay bales. The coffee camper keeps its regular hours. Details at goodfruitcoffeecollective.com/pumpkin-patch/.

What are your hours?

Monday through Friday 7am to 2pm, and Saturdays 8am to 3pm. We’re closed Sundays for now. Hours can shift for holidays and weather, so check our Instagram before a long drive.

Is there a coffee shop near Carrollwood?

Yes. Good Fruit is a family-owned coffee shop about ten minutes from Carrollwood, at the historic Bearss Groves farm stand on Lake Magdalene Blvd in North Tampa. Espresso, cold brew, matcha, and fresh bakes, Monday through Saturday.

Is there parking?

Yes - free on-site parking on the gravel lot right next to the camper.

Is there seating?

Plenty of shaded picnic tables under the oaks and Spanish moss. Grab a table, stay a while - nobody’s in a hurry here.

Is Good Fruit Coffee Roasters the same business?

Yes. Good Fruit Coffee Roasters was our original name when we ran the coffee truck on W Bearss Ave in Tampa. Same family, same coffee - we are now parked full time at the Bearss Groves farm stand as Good Fruit Coffee Collective. Any listing that still says Roasters or shows a W Bearss Ave address is out of date.

Is Good Fruit the same as Bearss Groves?

We’re the resident coffee shop at the old Bearss Groves farm stand, a Tampa corner that’s been growing good things since 1895. We serve coffee and bakes there Monday through Saturday and host the Slow Saturdays market each week.

Coffee & Menu

Where do your coffee beans come from?

We brew with beans from our friends at Valor Coffee in Alpharetta, Georgia - dialed in fresh every morning at the camper.

What should I order first?

Regulars swear by the Magdalene Maple, our signature drink. Lattes, cold brew, matcha, and chai are always pouring, and everything comes iced - this is Florida, after all.

Do you have dairy-free milk?

Yes - oat and almond are always on hand for any drink.

Do you have drinks for kids?

Absolutely. Kid-size hot cocoa, steamers, and lemonade are on the menu, made just for little hands.

What’s in the bakery case?

Buttermilk biscuits, glazed and cheddar scones, and sea-salt chocolate chip cookies, baked fresh every morning and still warm when the window opens. By mid-morning, the good ones are gone.

Sourdough Saturdays

When can I order sourdough?

Sourdough Saturdays preorders are open now. Reserve online at goodfruitcoffeecollective.com/sourdough/ any time before Friday at 8pm, and pick up that Saturday at the camper window at Bearss Groves.

How do sourdough preorders work?

Pick how many loaves (up to 4) and a Saturday pickup window, pay through Square, and get a receipt by email. We bake only what is reserved, then you collect it at the camper window between 8am and 2pm.

How much is a loaf of sourdough?

$12 a loaf. We bake 24 loaves a week, so once the week’s count hits zero the page shows sold out until the next Saturday opens.

What’s in the sourdough?

Flour, water, salt, and a very patient starter - naturally leavened and slow-fermented for days. Baked in a kitchen that also handles wheat, dairy and eggs.

What if I miss my sourdough pickup?

Email us before the Friday 8pm cutoff to move or cancel. After that the loaf is baked to order and non-refundable, and loaves left after 2pm Saturday may be donated or resold.

Catering & Events

Do you cater events in Tampa?

Yes! Our branded coffee cart travels to weddings, offices, schools, campuses, and parties across the Tampa Bay area with a full espresso bar - lattes, iced drinks, matcha, and cold brew made to order.

Can the coffee cart set up indoors?

That’s the whole point of the cart - it fits through a standard door, so office lobbies, classrooms, and reception halls are all fair game.

How do I book the coffee cart?

Send a quote request through our catering page with your date, headcount, and location, and we’ll get right back to you. The earlier you book, the better - Saturdays go fast.

Slow Saturdays

What is Slow Saturdays?

Our weekly market at the grove - local vendors and makers, fresh produce, live music, great coffee, and no reason to hurry. Every Saturday from 8am to 3pm at Bearss Groves.

Is Slow Saturdays free to attend?

Completely free - just come hungry and caffeinate accordingly. Parking is free too.

How do I become a Slow Saturdays vendor?

We’d love to hear from you - reach out through the vendor link on our Slow Saturdays page and tell us what you make.

Kids, Dogs & More

Is Good Fruit kid-friendly?

Very. The Little Fruit Play Corner has a giant Connect Four, books, and lawn games, and the picnic tables have plenty of room for strollers.

Is Good Fruit dog-friendly?

Leashed pups are welcome - and yes, pup cups are a thing here. Your dog will learn the turn into the parking lot fast.

Do you sell merch?

Hats in sky blue and rust, our handmade ceramic Good Cup, and bags of beans to brew at home - order online for free pickup at the camper, with shipping available on most items.
