Orlando is set to see an influx of coffee enthusiasts as National Coffee Day approaches on Monday, September 29, 2025. This delightful holiday celebrates one of the world’s most beloved beverages and brings along a range of sweet deals for coffee lovers across the United States. In recent findings by WalletHub, Florida’s cities are in the spotlight, with Orlando ranked 5th, Tampa in 6th, and Miami at 10th place among the top coffee cities in America.
This annual celebration is not limited to the U.S.; it is also recognized in various countries, including Australia, Austria, Canada, and Hungary. National Coffee Day was first recognized in 2005 and gradually gained official status as a holiday on September 29, 2009, largely popularized by the Southern Food and Beverage Museum in New Orleans during the inaugural New Orleans Coffee Festival. Just two days later, International Coffee Day is observed on October 1 to promote fair trade coffee and raise awareness about the challenges faced by coffee growers.
On National Coffee Day, major coffee brands and shops are rolling out attractive promotions and discounts. For instance, Burger King is offering all Royal Perks members any size coffee for just $1. At Circle K, customers can grab a free medium hot or iced coffee from September 26 through October 2 using their mobile app. Dunkin’ Donuts will reward their app users with a free medium iced or hot coffee with any purchase made on September 29.
Furthermore, Einstein Bros Bagels is giving away any size hot or iced coffee for free with an online or in-app purchase. Krispy Kreme customers can enjoy a free medium hot or iced coffee with any purchase, plus a buy-one-get-one offer on Original Glazed donuts with specific promo codes. Paris Baguette is offering PB Rewards members a free medium coffee with any purchase from September 27 to September 29.
Additionally, Playa Bowls will have a Buy One Get One offer on 20-oz cold brew for rewards members on September 29. Scooter’s Coffee will provide free medium brewed coffee through their mobile app, while Whataburger is allowing customers to claim a free 16-ounce hot or iced coffee with no purchase necessary. People making orders through Grubhub can also take advantage of a $7 discount on orders of $20 or more for Starbucks via Grubhub+ members on National Coffee Day.
Local coffee shops are likely to join in on the celebration, offering complimentary coffee or discounts in honor of National Coffee Day. Given that the best cities for coffee lovers were determined based on a comparison of the 100 most populous U.S. cities across 12 key metrics—such as average prices and number of coffee shops—Florida’s prominent presence reaffirms its status as a coffee-loving state.
As coffee lovers gear up for this year’s National Coffee Day, Florida’s vibrant coffee culture will be on full display, providing both residents and visitors with various options to enjoy delightful coffee experiences. Mark your calendars for this flavorful celebration, and take advantage of the sweet deals offered throughout the Sunshine State.
