MINNEAPOLIS, Minn. (August 18, 2025) – 7 Brew Coffee, the rapidly growing drive-thru beverage brand known for its original coffee blends, infused energy drinks, smoothies, teas and signature customer experience, is officially entering the Minneapolis-St. Paul market. Franchisee Kueber Coffee Minnesota LLC, part of the Glow Brands group of retail brands, will oversee the expansion which calls for more than 60 stands to open by 2030.

Plans for the first four Minneapolis-St. Paul area locations have been finalized with grand openings expected later this year and into 2026. Those locations are:

  • 155th St. West & Pilot Knob Road, Apple Valley, MN
  • 935 County Road East, Vadnais Heights, MN
  • 17475 State Highway 7, Minnetonka, MN
  • 2982 White Bear Ave. North, Maplewood, MN

Kueber Coffee Minnesota is currently working with local real estate brokers Jeremy Grittner and Zac Hoang of JLL to identify the perfect locations for aggressive growth over the next five years. 7 Brews signature 510-square-foot, double drive-thru stands have been praised for shortening wait times and providing superior customer experience.

“We are beyond excited to bring 7 Brews positive, uplifting customer experience to the Twin Cities,” said Rick Kueber, CEO of Kueber Coffee Minnesota. “The unprecedented growth of 7 Brew around the U.S. is tied directly to the energy and investment we bring to our communities. On top of that, we take great pride in delivering premium coffee and cold beverages with a smile. We can’t wait to open our first four locations and begin serving joy and cultivating kindness – one delicious cup at a time.”

With over 450 stands across 34 states, 7 Brew is redefining the drive-thru experience by focusing on speed, friendliness, and an expansive beverage menu that includes everything from handcrafted lattes, flavored energy drinks, Chillers, smoothies to fully-customizable sodas. Customers will experience an upbeat atmosphere, complete with lively music and an enthusiastic crew of “brewistas” ready to engage in friendly conversation and take their order.

This high-touch, personalized approach is a cornerstone of the 7 Brew brand, which prioritizes fast service without sacrificing quality or connection.

“It’s truly remarkable how much 7 Brew has exploded over the last 24 months,” said Kueber. “7 Brew has one of the most brand-loyal fan bases not only within the quick service space but across all brands. Were extremely confident the Twin Cities are home to a large and growing community of current and future 7 Brew fans.”

Each new 7 Brew stand brings up to 75 new jobs to its local community, offering team members a dynamic work environment built on customer connections and upbeat service.
