Directions & Parking

Stand Spotlight

Why This Stand

Reviewers keep coming back for the people here. Lillian gets called out by name for bringing real energy to every window, and the Brew Crew is known for remembering regulars' orders without being asked. That kind of consistency matters on a cold Traverse City morning.

Chai, Pup Cups, and the Blondie show up again and again in reviews. Check the full 7 Brew menu before you go, but those three are a safe bet if you're not sure where to start.

Speed is another reason locals choose this stand. One regular said she's in and out in two to five minutes, faster than the left turn into the lot. With two lanes running and music up, the line moves.

Music up, two lanes, and extremely fast service! I'm not from TC but I work here and a coworker recommended 7 Brew. The only downside about 7 Brew is trying to make a left turn into it lol From start to finish, I'm in and out within 2-5 minutes :) literally sometimes my left turn takes longer due to that light. For the price, I get my large coffee and it's much larger than anything I can get from my town. It's quick, delicious, and runs very efficiently. Wish you guys came to Cadillac!

I get a plain breve and it's good. They're open sooner than a lot of places so that's nice. Comes out a REALLY hot the warning on the container is accurate. Cheaper than Biggby too! Corporate: I don't like how they have the tip screen before I even do anything else before you pay. I don't even see the price of what I ordered , it goes tip or no tip screen then the server flips it around and they can see if you tipped or not and then they scan the credit card on the back of the tablet.

They never listen, always mess up my order, cant seem to listen because they are more worried about each other or whats going on around. I go to the US 31 location frequently never have an issue. The South Airport location sucks.
