FLAMINGO BEAN CO – Restaurant

On West Daughtery Road in Lakeland, Flamingo Bean Co. roasts its own beans and runs an espresso bar alongside a breakfast-and-lunch counter, open mornings into mid-afternoon. Lattes, cappuccinos and cold brew share the menu with flavored Flamingo Fizzies sodas and a rotating tea list, while the kitchen turns out breakfast sandwiches, burritos and casseroles alongside chicken salad. A case of cinnamon rolls, muffins, scones and cookies rounds out the counter for anyone stopping in for something sweet on the way. It reads like a neighborhood roastery built around a quick stop rather than a sit-down meal, closing well before dinner.
