For over a century, Alessi Bakery has been a cherished part of Tampa’s community, loved for its rich history and iconic recipes. Now, this family-owned bakery is embracing an exciting transformation in partnership with Summit Design + Build. Their new flagship location will move to the historic Tampa Letter Carriers building at 3003 W Cypress Street. With construction already underway, the bakery is ensuring its legacy is preserved while introducing modern touches that honor its remarkable journey.
The new location will elevate the Alessi Bakery experience with much more than its renowned pastries and breads. Guests can look forward to an expanded menu, complete with exciting new offerings. The inclusion of a coffee bar and a full liquor bar will add a fresh, contemporary twist to the dining experience. Beyond this, the upgraded parking facilities and a new outdoor patio will create a welcoming space for gatherings, blending comfort with culinary excellence.
The revamped bakery will feature cutting-edge upgrades designed to enhance operations. Modern walk-in coolers and freezers will streamline efficiency, while a mezzanine will optimize workflow. Tampa-based JVB Architect, LLC has expertly designed the space to merge historic charm with the functionality needed for today’s bakery and café. This thoughtful design ensures the building retains its timeless appeal while embracing innovation.
Scheduled to reopen in mid-2025, Alessi Bakery’s grand reopening promises a perfect blend of tradition and modernity. Loyal patrons and new visitors alike will enjoy the time-honored recipes they love, now paired with exciting upgrades that redefine the experience. This new chapter is set to solidify Alessi Bakery’s place as a Tampa icon for generations to come.
