I’m damn near addicted to 7 Brew. I think there’s only two in the area, one in Gonzales and one on Essen Lane.
It is cheaper than Starbucks, tastes 100x better than Starbucks, and their drive thru runs with the efficiency of Chick Fil A’s drive thru. The one Essen could have 10-12 cars in the drive thru, and you are still in & out in 5 mins.

A 24 oz iced latte at Starbucks is nearly $8. A large latte at 7 Brew is 32 oz and tastes like a latte, not a melted milkshake like Starbucks.

I’ve never seen anyone get a regular coffee from 7 Brew.

It’s always a trashy LP/Ascension white girl with a huge cup full of milk and sugar trying to act like they are drinking fancy coffee.

7 Brew has other things besides coffee drinks. They have milk shakes, smoothies, etc. I’ve never had them.
All I know is their iced coffee drinks have real espresso in them and have a real coffee flavor in them. You can see them making it on the espresso machine.
The ones at Starbucks have zero coffee taste and are just sugar milk drinks.

7 Brew has better iced drinks by far, but Starbucks has better hot drinks, teas, and fruit themed drinks than 7Brew. The energy drinks at 7 Brew are interesting and I don't mind them, but I also feel that once you've had one energy drink, you realize they all sorta taste the same.

It's only cheaper if you have their rewards program on your phone where they bombard you every week with a BOGO or 50% off your next visit, which is smart.

I don't get the Starbucks hate though.

I got an iced coffee from there and it tasted weird - like iced tea was in there. IMO French Truck and CC’s are the only places in town to get a decent iced coffee

My daughter loves the one in Hammond. I really wish we could get one down here.

It's pretty damn good. I hate most coffee places but my fiancee and her family had me go there and I was surprised.

I’m great friends with the owners from NW Arkansas and they nailed the model and product.

Love 7 Brew. I get the iced green tea every time I’m over by Essen.

They're local to here, but they're similar to Dutch Bros. in that they're slinging cafeinated sugary drinkable desserts under the guise of "coffee" for the most part.

I'm somehow on some 7Brew fanpage on Facebook, and I honestly can't believe the shite people are posting about drinking daily. This country has issues.

For the fans, though, here's a link to the "secret menu" so you too can have a coffee drink that tastes like a cinnamon roll and has 600 calories.

I feel like I’m getting screwed at most places and the size to price ratio isn’t good. I can get a basic iced coffee and gtfo in no time at 7brew

My daughter and I LOVE 7 Brew, and I'm a lifelong Community drinker. Cheaper and better tasting. Starbucks always tastes burnt to me.

I got the triple 7 there once which has like 6 shots of espresso and it fricked my world up. The crash after was so brutal I thought I was hungover

That’s because it is. Starbucks over roasts their beans for consistency and they realize 95% of their customers don’t drink coffee, they drink milkshake flavored coffee so no one notices they’re actual coffee is shite
