Trendy drive-thru beverage chain, 7 Brew, is expanding to Northern Jersey and is opening a location later this year at 1005 Raritan Road in Clark.
The property was leased to the 7 Brew developer this past January, and construction has been underway to complete the demolition of the now-closed Santander Bank. The spot is located on a busy corner between Raritan Road and Westfield Ave, which will drive business.
7 Brew launched as a drink stand in 2017 in Arkansas and began franchising only four years and one pandemic later. Their locations have exploded, now reaching over 500 stands as of 2025.
Their brand highlights quick service and tasty beverages that also donate a hefty sum to charity. The brand has donated over a million dollars to the very communities they served.
The extensive menu includes coffees, lattes, energy drinks, teas, sodas, smoothies and more. Basically, a one-stop shop to quench your thirst. The rebranding of soda as a treat is reminiscent of Utah soda shops and is now influencing the East Coast.
Additionally, the location’s opening provides job opportunities. The branch has posted listings online offering flexible hours.
“The location is so convenient because my friends and I have been wanting to go to one, but it’s always been too far away,” senior Paige Rowley said.
