7 Brew Coffee drops into Irondale

IRONDALE, Ala. (Trussville Tribune) -- Irondale coffee lovers have a new spot to start their mornings off right with the opening of their own local 7 Brew.

According to Chris Basinger of the Trussville Tribune, community members and employees celebrated the grand opening of the popular drive-thru coffee chain’s newest location on Monday with special guest and 7 Brew lover Miss America Abbie Stockard.

“I’m obsessed with 7 Brew, y’all have no idea. I’m so glad this is a closer location because I live 30 minutes away from the Trussville one and I will drive the 30 minutes to go and get it,” Stockard joked.

Before the ribbon cutting, she was presented with a $1,000 check from the company for the Miss America Scholarship Foundation, which offers academic and community-based scholarships for undergraduate and graduate studies.

“I’m so appreciative of y’all writing this very generous check for the Miss America Scholarship Foundation. For those who don’t know, Miss America is a scholarship organization, and the entire reason I started competing in the first place was to fulfill a financial need for my family,” Stockard said.

“I know that this scholarship money will definitely help other young women like me who are in similar positions,” she continued.

Located at 1353 Montclair Road, formerly the Sonic Drive-In, the drive-thru stand offers over 20,000 unique drink combinations to satisfy any craving.

The coffee spot has proven to be a hit with locals, joining other locations that have opened up recently in Moody and Trussville.

In addition to offering special deals, the location will host a “Swag Day” on April 19 where customers who purchase a large drink will get a free 7 Brew shirt.
