Einstein Bros. Bagel, Caribou Coffee opening new concept store in Tampa

Looking for a new place for that morning or afternoon pick-me-up? Try the new concept store created as a result of a partnership between Einstein Bros. Bagels and Caribou Coffee. A location recently opened in Sarasota, and another will be opening in North Tampa on December 9^th.

While Einstein Bagel locations have been a part of the greater Tampa Bay area for many years, the new concept store offers the bagels customers have always known, along with the introduction of Caribou Coffee.

“It just made sense to bring these two great items together,” says Candyce Hedlund of Einstein Bagels. “In addition to offering bagels and other food items customers have come to love from Einstein, there will now be more drink options as well. The new stores will offer handcrafted drinks, specialty coffees from Caribou. It’s a complete partnership with Einstein Bagels and their food and Caribou Coffee and their drinks.”

According to Hedlund, the idea to bring Einstein Bagels and Caribou Coffee together happened earlier this year, and together the team has opened 15 concept stores around the country since September, with four more opening before the end of the year.

To celebrate the Tampa store opening, the 2,400-square-foot location will be holding a grand opening. The first 50 people in line will receive a coupon booklet, which contains weekly coupons for free coffee, bagels and schmear for a year. Doors open at 5 a.m.

The new Einstein Bagels and Caribou Coffee concept store is situated at 10802 North Dale Mabry Highway in Tampa.
