TAMPA, Fla. — Four years, 400-plus events and a whole lotta miles.
Now, Danny and Lael Martinez, the enterprising couple behind a popular mobile coffeehouse, have finally found a permanent home.
Mi Cafecito — a cozy salute to strong Colombian coffee, homemade arepas and more — just opened at 2202 W Platt St. in South Tampa.
"Our coffee, from Day 1, started in Colombia, from Colombian farms, and it's still coming from Colombian farms today," says Danny.

The indoor-outdoor space has been beautifully refurbished, with a fun streetside patio and a stylish, soothing interior.
These are exciting times for Lael and Danny. They achieved their brick-and-mortar dreams. Even better? They're expecting their first child very soon.
"I feel like we're having two babies this fall," says Lael.
