Caffeine addicts can rejoice as several 7 Brew locations are coming to New Jersey. The drive-through coffee shop chain known for its endless drink combinations and energy drink specials is opening in Paramus, Upper Saddle River, Newton, Flemington, and Barnegat. Some locations are expected to open as soon as this month, while others do not have a confirmed opening date. Read on to learn more about these upcoming 7 Brew openings.
What is 7 Brew?
7 Brew started with one location in Arkansas and has now expanded to 38 states with over 800 coffee stands. These soon-to-be-opened cafes will join nine other New Jersey locations, bringing the popular drive-through chain to even more communities across the Garden State. The company was later purchased by an entrepreneurial group that continued growing the brand with a drive-through-only model, a modernized menu, and the introduction of its “Brew Crew” culture.

Similar to Dutch Bros on the West Coast, 7 Brew is a drive-through-only coffee chain that focuses on speed and efficiency. It also offers a large menu with endless flavor combinations and add-ons. The menu offers classic cafe-style drinks, including lattes, macchiatos, cappuccinos, breve, Americanos, and cold brew that could be paired with unique flavor combinations like a funnel cake macchiato or banana bread mocha.
In addition to its coffee lineup, 7 Brew has signature energy drinks with simple flavors like strawberry or watermelon, or customers can choose a combo such as the nightshade that combines lavender, pomegranate, and blue raspberry. For those who want the flavor without the caffeine, there is also a lineup of fizz sodas that mix sparkling water with their assortment of syrups.
7 Brew also offers a variety of lemonades, smoothies, and shakes. The chain is known for its highly customizable menu, allowing customers to add an extra shot, mix and match flavors, adjust sweetness, or finish it all off with a drizzle or cold foam topping.
New Jersey Locations
7 Brew is undergoing a nationwide expansion of its stands spread across more than 20 states. The chain currently has nine locations open in New Jersey, with additional stands planned for communities including Paramus, Upper Saddle River, Newton, Flemington, and Barnegat.
Three of the new locations, Upper Saddle River, Flemington, and Newton, have received municipal approvals to start construction. Barnegat was approved for a use variance by the local zoning board for a new 7 Brew at 907 West Bay Avenue. The project still needs detailed site plan approval before construction can begin. Paramus is also seeking municipal approval to open at 211 Route 4 East in Paramus, currently home to iFLY Indoor Skydiving.

Most 7 Brew locations in New Jersey are open from 5:30 AM until 11:00 PM, but there has been no official announcement on the hours for these upcoming cafes.
