For those who need Florida Strawberries, there’s no better spot to visit this time of year than Plant City, a quick drive from downtown Tampa. If you visit just one spot for your strawberry fix this winter and spring, we highly recommend you pull up to The Strawberry Hut—a little roadside gem that’s been serving tasty Cuban sandwiches and refreshing strawberry shakes since 1993.
This roadside foodie destination is located at 1505 N Wheeler St in Plant City, making it a perfect stop if you’re headed to the Strawberry Festival.

Locals have voted Strawberry Hut for the best Cuban for over a decade. The team behind the counter has even crafted a 3-foot-long Cuban sandwich. Unsurprisingly, the cute hut’s menu also features sensational strawberry shortcakes. A popular beverage, the Hurricane, packs a maelstrom of sweetness and is made with real fruit and candy—including peanut butter cups, Oreos, Butterfingers, M&Ms, strawberries, pineapple, and bananas.
Indulge in foot-long Cubans at their adorable picnic tables, sample the Spanish bean soup—a cherished family recipe—and enjoy a business that has served the community for nearly 30 years. The Strawberry Hut operates two locations:
- 743 E Memorial Blvd, Lakeland
- 1505 N Wheeler St, Plant City
If you’re headed out that way you can always order in advance online.
