Local appeal of Cafe Kili recognized on a national level
LUTZ, FL, September 24, 2012
Tampa-based coffee shop, Cafe Kili, was recently recognized by The Huffington Post and its readers as the ninth best coffee shop in the country on Thursday, Sept. 13. Readers were asked to vote on who brewed the best coffee in the nation. The list is featured as an infographic on the "Huffpost Taste" section of the publication.Opening more than five years ago, Cafe Kili sells in-house roasted coffee, freshly brewed tea, smoothies and gourmet sandwiches. The owners' commitment to excellence and their knowledge has gained Cafe Kili both local and national recognition. For the past two years the Kenyan-owned coffee shop was voted Best Coffee House in Northeast Tampa by the Tampa Tribune. "We are humbled and honored to have received this type of recognition the past several years," says Cafe Kili owner Rose Waruinge. "Earning this distinction encourages us to continue to provide excellent service to our customers. It is because of the loyalty of the Tampa Bay community that we have flourished into the third- place for many of our customer base."
Cafe Kili is a dream come true for Rose Waruinge, a professional nurse by trade; she relocated with her family to the Tampa Bay area over 10 years ago from Kenya. Rose is the daughter of a Kenyan coffee farmer and that experience has provided her with a wealth of coffee experience and expertise. With the support of her husband, Patrick Gachau and their sons, Cafe Kili opened their Temple Terrace location more than four years ago.
Now customers from across the nation can order freshly-roasted Cafe Kili coffee online at http://www.cafekili.com/store/. Cafe Kili is known for fresh coffee which is roasted on-site weekly or as needed to fill retail customer orders.
