 | OPENED: ?, PHOTO: 20 July 2002 This store is not actually at the intersection of Centro & Ybor, but rather at the Centro Ybor, a revitalized area of Ybor City, named after a Spanish emigre who started a cigar industry. This area has been designated a National Historic Landmark District. Just a few blocks east is a rough part of town, and the lady at the visitor's center warned me to avoid it after dark. It's perhaps because of this, or perhaps because of how busy the area gets on weekends, that it became the first, or one of the first, locations in the country to be outfitted with video cameras equipped with facial-recognition software. |

 | OPENED: ?, PHOTO: 18 January 2004 When I visited, this ristretto sported a style of furniture new to me. But what I really like was a map of the world with pins indicating where the customers come from. And they host an American Sign Language night. |
 | OPENED: ?, PHOTO: 29 January 2000 This store, near the University, was pretty nice, if small, the last time around, and this second time I noticed that I the foliage was rather pretty as well. Too bad I couldn't find a shot that included this cool, yet spooky-looking, tree in the back. |
 | OPENED: ?, PHOTO: 20 July 2002 When I visited in July 2002, I was told that this location is the busiest in Tampa. |

Montague & Linebaugh, Tampa | ||
 | OPENED: ?, PHOTO: 21 July 2002 As I walked into this location, I noticed the trash can outside was smoking, seemingly on fire. A barista took quick action, however put a bucket of soapy waste water to good use. |

 | OPENED: ?, PHOTO: 20 July 2002 Sorry for the blurred photo and the framing, but I had to position a mall directory myself and the security guard and shoot quickly. Even so, I think he noticed me, so I skeedaddled, catching a glimpsed of him coming towards me reflected in the door. |

Harden Rd & Polk County Blvd, Lakeland | ||
 | OPENED: ?, PHOTO: 17 December 2005, ORIGINAL VISIT: 17 December 2005 This store boasts a litany of new design elements. The most striking is the television displaying video of logs burning, as in a fireplace. Once you manage to tear your gaze away from the mesmerizing flames you might notice a padded bench in the corner. Then there is the mat built into the floor, the curtains, the chairs with an odd square hole in the padding. All in all, an all-around new concept look. |

Baywalk, St Petersburg | ||
 | OPENED: ?, PHOTO: 21 July 2002 At this location, the entranceway is separated from the rest of the store by a dark blue-green curtain. This is Florida, so I doubt its to block the cold air. Anyhow, I saw the most expensive pieces of local artwork I'd ever seen on display at this store--one piece was priced at over $1000! |
