Big News: Dutch Bros Coffee Coming to St Petersburg in 2026
Exciting things are happening in our beloved Sunshine City! We’re thrilled to share a scoop that hasn’t hit the headlines yet — Dutch Bros Coffee is coming to St Petersburg in 2026! You heard it here first. While the land hasn’t been purchased just yet, multiple sources have confirmed that the popular west coast coffee chain is making concrete plans to open in the heart of St. Pete.
At Avalon Group Realty, we always stay ahead of the curve, and this announcement is yet another sign that St. Petersburg continues to grow into a destination city filled with flavor, culture, and convenience. As a St Petersburg Realtor, I’m always tracking developments that make life sweeter (or in this case, creamier and caffeinated!) for our clients — and this one’s a game-changer.
Why We’re Buzzing: What Makes Dutch Bros So Special?
If you’ve never sipped from the Dutch Bros menu, buckle up. Dutch Bros is more than a coffee shop — it’s a full-blown cultural experience. Founded in 1992 by two brothers in Grants Pass, Oregon, this drive-thru coffee brand built a devoted cult following across the western United States. With more than 850 locations and counting, it’s one of the fastest-growing coffee companies in the U.S.
From their enthusiastic “broistas” (what they call their baristas) to their peppy music and personalized service, a visit to Dutch Bros feels like a shot of espresso for your soul. And it’s not just hype — they’re consistently praised for customer service, community involvement, and of course, their delicious drinks.
As our broker Aaron Hunt puts it:
“When a national favorite like Dutch Bros chooses St. Pete, it means our city is truly on the map. It’s a sign that companies recognize the vibrant, supportive, and caffeinated culture we’re building here.”
The Inside Scoop: What We Know So Far
Dutch Bros Coffee has confirmed interest in entering the Tampa Bay market, with St Petersburg at the top of their list. While the exact location is under wraps and the land acquisition isn’t finalized yet, our insider sources say the brand is already meeting with city officials and scouting strategic high-traffic areas.
Our Avalon Group team is tracking every development and staying in close contact with the commercial players involved. As a team that’s known for insider knowledge and concierge-level service, we love bringing this kind of exciting, ahead-of-the-curve information to our community.
Realtor Pam Amante added:
“We love being the ones our clients call when they hear big news. Knowing that Dutch Bros is coming gives buyers and investors even more reason to look at St. Pete properties now.”
A Cult Favorite Menu Worth the Hype
Whether you're a cold brew connoisseur or a sugar-rush seeker, Dutch Bros has something for everyone. Here's a taste of what you can expect when they open their doors in St Petersburg:
Breve Drinks – Made with half-and-half and espresso; rich and creamy.
Classic Coffee – Americanos, lattes, mochas, and cold brews — all customizable.
Rebel Energy Drinks – Dutch Bros’ own high-caffeine, flavored energy drink line.
Frosts – Dutch Bros' version of a milkshake, blending decadent flavors and creamy textures.
Smoothies & Teas – A rainbow of options from peach to passionfruit.
Lemonades, Sodas, & Chais – Iced or hot, always flavorful.
My personal favorite? The “Carmelizer Blended” — an indulgent caramel mocha masterpiece made with real espresso and Borden chocolate milk. It’s rich, smooth, and just the right balance of bold and sweet.
Realtor Nora Sturgill couldn’t hide her enthusiasm:
“When I lived in Arizona, Dutch Bros was our go-to stop every morning. The drinks are incredible, but the vibe is just as addictive. I can’t wait to see it come to life here in St. Pete!”
St Petersburg: The Perfect Match for Dutch Bros Energy
St Petersburg is known for its artsy flair, active lifestyle, and upbeat energy — exactly the kind of community where Dutch Bros thrives. With our population growing and new businesses opening monthly, St. Pete is one of Florida’s fastest-rising stars.
As an experienced St Petersburg Realtor, I’ve watched our neighborhoods evolve into dynamic enclaves where culture meets convenience. Adding a high-energy, youth-driven brand like Dutch Bros into the mix only enhances what we already love about this place.
Realtor Yvette Kim said it best:
“Our favorite coffee place is about to become even more favorite! This is one of those brands that doesn’t just serve drinks — they create a following. It’s going to be huge for the local vibe.”

Buyers love proximity to favorite hangouts, especially ones with drive-thru convenience and high social media appeal. From investors eyeing short-term rentals to families looking for homes near all the buzz — this news matters.

A Look at Dutch Bros' Story
Dutch Bros began humbly, just a pushcart with espresso on the Oregon railroad tracks. But its founders, Travis and Dane Boersma, brought something truly unique: joy. Their mission wasn’t just about great coffee, but about uplifting every person who rolled through.
Fast forward to today — Dutch Bros is traded on the stock market, employs over 20,000 team members, and has a social media fanbase that treats their drinks like collector’s items. It’s no wonder “Our favorite coffee place” has become the daily ritual for so many people across the western U.S.
