The Innovation District, located on southern end of Downtown St. Pete, is composed of a dense collection of higher education, healthcare, marine science, and media institutions. District anchors include Johns Hopkins All Children’s Hospital, Bayfront Health St. Petersburg, USF St. Petersburg, SRI International, and the Poynter Institute for Media Studies. In an effort to spark further growth, local leaders have recently teamed up to officially brand and market the up-and-coming district as a regional live-work destination for innovation and collaboration.

A new Italian breakfast and coffee café is coming to the EDGE District of downtown St. Pete.
Café Bavaro will debut on Friday, October 16th, inside Bavaro’s at 945 Central Avenue.
The café will serve espresso drinks, breakfast plates, bagels, and sandwiches from 8 to 11:30 a.m., before Bavaro’s regular lunch service begins at noon.
“This has been in the works for a while, and we are excited about finally executing it,” Kaleigh DeSousa, manager of Bavaro’s St. Pete location, said in a conversation with St. Pete Rising.
Café Bavaro first opened at Bavaro’s Clearwater Beach location last year, giving the family a chance to build out the breakfast-and-coffee concept before bringing it to St. Pete.
The menu will include the usual espresso-based coffee drinks, from cappuccinos and flat whites to cortados, lattes, and Americanos. It will also offer specialty drinks including cannoli and tiramisu lattes, along with matcha, a limoncello refresher, and mimosas.
