A new drive-thru coffee shop, 7 Brew Coffee, is seeking approval to open in Middletown at the intersection of Washington St. and Boston Road. The Planning and Zoning Commission will hold a public hearing to discuss the proposal, which includes a two-story building with a drive-thru only. The site will not have indoor seating, focusing instead on quick service for customers on the go.
• The proposed building will cover 510 square feet and include a two-lane drive-thru.
• Plans feature a detached refrigerated cooler, parking for 11 cars, and landscaping.
• The location has previously been reviewed for an office building that was never built.
• Concerns have been raised about neon lighting and its impact on nearby residents.
This development is significant as it would bring a popular coffee brand to the area, enhancing local options and potentially boosting the economy. It also reflects the growing trend of drive-thru coffee shops in Connecticut, catering to the demand for convenience.
