Latest update
7 Brew is opening 27 drive-thru coffee stands across 19 states during July 2026. Six locations began serving customers earlier in the month, while 21 additional openings are scheduled from July 13 through July 27.
A rapidly growing drive-thru coffee chain is preparing to reach more American communities this month as 7 Brew continues one of the fastest expansion periods in its history.
The Arkansas-based company has scheduled 27 new stands for July, extending its footprint from the Southeast and Midwest to the Northeast, Mountain West and Texas. The openings include locations in Colorado Springs, Indianapolis, Palatine, Hazlet, Webster, Altoona and Mission, along with several smaller regional markets.
The expansion matters because 7 Brew is approaching 800 locations nationwide after recently opening its 777th stand in San Antonio. That represents a dramatic change for a business that had only 38 locations in 2023 and has since added more than 500 stands.
For customers in the affected cities, the new locations will bring a beverage menu that extends beyond traditional hot and iced coffee. It will also increase competition in suburban retail areas where drive-thru coffee, energy drinks and flavored beverages have become a growing part of the quick-service market.
Six stands opened earlier in July
The first part of the July rollout included new stands in Cornelia, Georgia; Fort Wayne, Indiana; Kalamazoo, Michigan; North Augusta, South Carolina; St. Peters, Missouri; and West Monroe, Louisiana.
Kalamazoo also appears in the published schedule with a July 13 opening date for the stand at 4702 Main Street. Because opening plans can be adjusted during final preparations, local customers should confirm the latest status before making a special trip.

Why the 7 Brew format stands out
7 Brew does not operate like a conventional coffeehouse with indoor seating, a counter and a pickup window. Its compact stands use two drive-thru lanes, and employees approach vehicles to take orders and deliver finished drinks directly to customers.
The company calls those employees “brewistas.” By handling the entire interaction in the lane, the business aims to combine fast service with more direct contact between staff and customers.
Its menu is divided into seven main categories: coffee, energy drinks, fizz sodas, teas, lemonades, smoothies and shakes. Customers can customize drinks with different flavors, milk choices, sweetness levels and caffeine options, allowing the chain to appeal to people who may not be regular coffee drinkers.
Current operating hours and confirmed store details can be checked through the official 7 Brew location directory.

The chain has grown far beyond Arkansas
7 Brew was founded in Rogers, Arkansas, in 2017 and initially expanded at a measured pace. The company had seven stands by 2020 and 38 locations by 2023 before its growth accelerated sharply through franchised and company-supported development.
The July schedule illustrates how the brand is now building a genuinely national presence. Rather than focusing only on major metropolitan centers, many of the new stands are being placed in suburban corridors and regional cities where accessible roadside sites can support the double-lane format.
Other restaurant brands are following a similar strategy as they pursue customers outside traditional urban centers. The expansion comes amid wider growth in the U.S. fast-food sector, including new In-N-Out locations planned across five states.
Store launch dates remain subject to final inspections, construction progress, staffing and local permits. Customers should verify that a stand has officially opened before visiting, particularly during the first few days of its scheduled launch period.
The expansion also reflects a broader trend among major U.S. retailers and restaurant chains that are investing in suburban and fast-growing regional markets rather than focusing only on large metropolitan areas. Discount retailer Burlington recently announced its own nationwide expansion, with 12 new stores opening across six states this July, highlighting how consumer-facing brands continue to grow their physical footprints in 2026.
