Why, oh why canāt we have a 7 Brew in Marion or Wytheville Va? We NEEEED it!!!! However, for the time being Iāll drive to Bristol to fuel my cravings!
Iām not saying Iād move zip codes just to live closer to one⦠but I might. Listen, I love a good drink as much as the next caffeine-craving human, but 7 Brew? Itās in a whole different league. Weāre talkinā leaps and bounds above Dunkinā and Starbucks combinedāand I say that with love in my heart and an iced chai latte in my hand.
Yes, their coffee is top-tier (smooth, bold, and never bitter), but the real stars of the show? The fruity drinks. And oh, honey, they are life-changing. Weāre talking smoothies, flavored lemonades, iced teas, and wild, vibrant energy drinks that taste like summer break in a cup. Itās like a choose-your-own-adventure, but every ending is delicious.
7 Brew doesnāt just serve drinksāthey serve vibes. Theyāve got a loyal, slightly-obsessed following on Facebook and TikTok, and I may or may not have an entire photo album on my phone dedicated to screenshots of drinks I want to try. (My dog is officially in second place⦠and thatās saying something.)
Itās fast, itās friendly, itās funāand if youāve never been, just know: youāre missing out on joy in a cup. Hereās to hoping the 7 Brew powers-that-be bless our town soon. Until then, Iāll be fueling my road trips based on drive-thru proximity.
My Current Obsession: A Drink So Good, It Deserves Its Own Fan Club
Okay, hear me out⦠if youāre one of the chosen few who live for the Sunset Passion PiƱa Colada at Red Lobster (you know the oneātropical, creamy, and dangerously delicious), then brace yourself. Because 7 Brew just casually one-upped it⦠without the booze and with even more flavor magic. š
Introducing (order exactly like this):
A PiƱa Colada Smoothie + guava + strawberry + cupcake syrup.
Yes, cupcake. Donāt question itājust trust. š§
Yāall, this drink is summer vacation in a cup. Itās tropical, fruity, smooth, and just the right amount of sweet. It somehow manages to taste like the beach, your childhood birthday party, and a good life choice all at once. Iām not even exaggerating when I say itās addictive. This might be my forever go-to.
Pro tip:
Order a large (youāll regret it if you donāt), and ask for a large cup of ice on the side. When it starts to melt a bit, pour it over that fresh ice and you can sip and savor it for hours like the classy, hydrated human you are.
To whoever first posted this heavenly comboāyou are truly doing the Lordās work. May your 7 Brew line always be short and your drinks forever...
Ā Ā Ā Read moreI have to say my first visit to this location may be my last. This location is by far the worst 7 Brew I have been to. First off people should know that if you are coming from Bristol VA down Volunteer Parkway to this location, if you turn left at the red light right past the new Weigels to pull in to this 7 Brew that literally has signs pointed that way now open with arrows, if you pull in at their entrance in that spot which appears to be a lane to order well you will be rudely met at your window that you have to drive all the way around the building to get in the actual lanes to order. So this entrance is clearly misleading. And I was not the only car that was rudely approached about this. Several in front of me were alsoš. Well mark your entrance better if you can't enter into a lane to order from that way cause heaven for bid if you do. The young girl that approached our cars was very rude yelling you have run over 1 of our cones. So after I drive around the whole building to an order lane another girl comes to the window to take our order when we are very far from the menu. We did not know what we wanted and was not given the chance to even get to decide or look at the menu because she was clearly rushing us along. So we just ordered something we had tried before at another location. Very rude to not even ask the customer if they want to pull up to view the menu before they order. I would like to see the choices before I spend this much for a drink. š¤ØI most likely will not return here unless their attitude changes. I have never seen such a rude bunch of employees at any other 7 Brew I...
Ā Ā Ā Read moreSome things customers need to know about this brand new place. They are not giving their employees breaks even after standing outside after 6 hours. In Tennessee it is illegal for an employer to not allow a 30 minute rest period after 6 hours.
To get around this, they shove a piece a paper under the employees nose and tell them to sign in without explaining what it means. They sign a waiver to breaks! They do not explain this to the employee. They do not educate the employee that they can revoke this at any time. They are literally telling the employees to sign away a right to a break even after 6 hours of standing outside.
They currently are not allowing the employees the tips they collect. They are using that money to 'pay for' the 'free' perks they are giving to the customers during the grand opening.
This place, like many others, is taking advantage of people who do not understand their basic rights. NO COMPANY should require an employee to stand outside over 6 hours without a break.
They also told the employees who were outside they would be 'rotated out' every hour. They do not do this, a person can be standing out in the sun for HOURS with no break or water.
I highly suggest not giving tips until the employees actually...
