How This 7 Brew’s Drive-Thru Actually Works
Winter Springs’ 7 Brew is a genuinely different setup than a typical coffee drive-thru, and it’s worth knowing before your first visit. Rather than a walk-up or pull-through window, the stand uses a door that staff step out of to take your order directly at your car window, similar to how a Chick-fil-A handles overflow lines with employees carrying iPads. There’s no indoor seating and no walk-up service.
“Winter Springs loves their coffee, right?”
— Louis Hilal, Winter Springs Planning and Zoning Board member, on the city’s growing cluster of coffee shopsCity planning records describe the building as a 520-square-foot structure, and a traffic study submitted with the application projected roughly 226 total daily vehicle trips once open, with about 132 of those considered new traffic beyond what the surrounding development already generates — with the heaviest impact expected during the morning commute.
Who’s Behind This Stand: 7Venture, Inc.
The Winter Springs location is operated by 7Venture, Inc., a Fayetteville, Arkansas-based 7 Brew franchise group that has been rapidly building out stands across the Southeast. The company operates locations across six states — Florida, Indiana, Oklahoma, North Carolina, South Carolina, and Georgia — and has additional Florida stands in various stages of development around Jacksonville, Gainesville, and Central Florida.
Ahead of opening day, 7Venture kicked off a community-facing “Bring the Brew to You” push: a QR code campaign inviting nearby businesses to request free drink drops delivered directly to their workplace, with a fuller events flier promised as the July 20 date approaches.
Winter Springs’ Increasingly Crowded Coffee Scene
7 Brew isn’t entering an empty market. Winter Springs already supports a genuinely diverse mix of coffee formats, which is exactly what prompted the “Winter Springs loves their coffee” comment from the city’s own planning board:
That competitive density lines up with a broader regional trend: an analysis by WalletHub ranks Orlando as the No. 2 best U.S. city for coffee lovers, behind only Portland, Oregon, with the average area consumer spending roughly $154 a year on coffee. Orlando also has one of the highest per-capita rates of donut shops in the country — context that helps explain why a pure drive-thru format keeps finding room to grow in and around Seminole County.
What to Expect on Opening Day
Like every 7 Brew stand, Winter Springs is drive-thru only — there’s no indoor seating or walk-up counter, and pedestrian access built into the site plan appears to exist mainly for staff and neighborhood walkability rather than customer walk-up service. Confirmed hours match the standard 7 Brew schedule: 5:30 AM–10:00 PM Monday through Thursday and Sunday, and 5:30 AM–11:00 PM Friday and Saturday.
On the menu: the full 7 Brew lineup across coffee, energy drinks, teas, lemonades, smoothies, and shakes, plus this month’s Freeze the Heat Frozen Chiller lineup, since the opening lands squarely in the middle of July’s seasonal campaign.

Part of a Bigger July Rollout
Winter Springs is one of more than 20 new 7 Brew stands opening across 18 states this July, and nationally the chain has grown to roughly 700–777 locations, up from about 460 as recently as late 2025 — expansion fueled in part by an undisclosed growth investment from private equity firm Blackstone. Florida alone has grown from 33 locations in late 2025 to roughly 49 by mid-2026, making it one of the company’s fastest-growing states.
