The 6 Tampa Area Walmarts With Drone Delivery

It probably won't be long until all Walmarts are doing it, but for now six Tampa area Walmart locations are among the first in the nation to offer delivery via a drone. Walmart has partnered with DroneUp, according to Fox 13 to provide the service for $3.99 for Walmart customers in New Port Richey, Valrico, Winter Haven, Tampa, Brandon and Seffner.

Here's the list:
8745 State Road 54 in New Port Richey
2140 Bloomingdale Avenue in Valrico
7450 Cypress Gardens Boulevard in Winter Haven
19910 Bruce B. Downs Boulevard in Tampa
1208 E. Brandon Boulevard in Brandon
11720 East Dr. MLK Boulevard in Seffner

You place your order online. Employees at Walmart load up the drone with your goodies and send it on its way. They leave your stuff in your yard by lowering a cable with your items. Orders will arrive in about 30 minutes! They say the weight limit is 10 pounds for now. [Source: Fox 13]

One Tampa doughnut shop made Yelp's Top 100 US Donut Shops in America list for 2022. But it might not be the one you're thinking.

I'm pretty partial to the doughnuts at Datz / Dough in Tampa, but when I've asked listeners about their favorite, inevitably Fray's Donut House is the one I hear the most. But neither made Yelp's Top 100 in America list. Here are the top 9 Florida spots for a great doughnut according to the reviews site.

The best doughnuts in Florida according to Yelp and #4 nationally. They liked the banana cream Deco Delight. It's got a Frosted Flakes and chocolate coating. Then they add caramel frosting, strawberries, blueberries and a chocolate drizzle.

Keeping it simple here. The "vintage donuts" are the way to go - a traditional cake doughnut rolled in sugar. Donnie's comes in nationally at #12.

Guava and cheese is a favorite here, but I'd go with the traditional glazed with brown butter and salt with white chocolate tres leches.  Their site says a Tampa location is coming soon.

Tampa Bay finally makes the list!  Coming in at #34 in the country, Hole in One Donut has a perfect 5 star reviews from almost 300 reviewers for their Florida Avenue location.  The Apple Fritters are a big favorite. BTW, this isn't the last time you'll see them on the list. Let's keep going.

Small batch, hand rolled, hand cut and hand decorated doughnuts. Reviewers say go with the peanut butter pretzel or banana cream pie doughnuts.

Inflation buster... their doughnuts start at 99 cents! Drop in on Fridays when they make devil's food cake doughnuts.

One stop shopping... they have ice cream and Hershey's milkshakes too.

Their cinnamon rolls and breakfast burritos get rave reviews too.

Congrats to Hole in One... they're the only Florida doughnut shop to make the list twice!  The Blueberry Cake doughnut is highly recommended.
