A unique drive-thru coffee shop concept, 7 Brew Coffee, is being proposed for a vacant lot on Route 9 in Hadley, Massachusetts. The shop would offer a variety of drinks, including infused energy drinks, Italian sodas, smoothies, teas, and milkshakes, all from the comfort of customers' vehicles. The business model, which has already gained traction in 27 states, features a double drive-thru and waitstaff who take orders on iPads and hand-deliver drinks to customers. While the concept may be unfamiliar to the Northeast, the franchisee believes it would be a great addition to the community. The Planning Board has yet to review the project, but the proposal has sparked interest in the area. In other news, a mural depicting a Greek god has been proposed for the side of a new Dave's Hot Chicken restaurant, which has raised some concerns about advertising and zoning regulations.
