Duckweed may be Tampa’s favorite market. The grocer continues to expand and at the end of 2022 set its sights set on Davis Islands, one of the dreamiest neighborhoods in Tampa. “What the Duck? Duckweed Davis Island has Gas!” wrote the enthusiastic owners in an Instagram post. The new store’s official address is 302 E Davis Boulevard and it is officially open. This Duckweed is also a gas station — and they recently shared that gas is as low as $2.99/gallon.
Duckweed carries everything from light bites and snacks, to essentials like milk, eggs, sauces, oils, and fresh produce. The store also hosts different restaurant concepts in its stores. The Davis Island shop will house The Boozy Pig. This carnivorous hot spot is famous for its Italian Sausage, porterhouse steak, pork chops, and its weekend brunch. They currently operate their butcher shop and restaurant at 3255 W Cypress Street, and this will serve as its second outpost.

The Boozy Pig and Duckweed partnering on a new location
“This is all part of the plan to grow the Duckweed brand and we are currently working on flagship locations at WestShore Marina District, with an interior that will elevate the design from the quirky urban look that defines the Channel District and Downtown Tampa storefronts, to a cleaner, more high-end look,” write the ownership team after their Westshore Marina District debut. “It will also include a liquor store that will offer residents of the surrounding communities an opportunity to purchase alcohol beyond beer and wine.”
The urban grocer’s locations in some of Tampa’s most trafficked districts are amplified through its new Duck Dash Delivery app. That’s right, you can support your local grocery store from the comfort of home.
