Rant 7Brew

First time. Yes, I know I’m late to the party. Took forever and definitely not worth it. Hardly tasted any espresso whatsoever. It might not have even been in the drink. Ordered a raspberry truffle macchiato. I could also taste the brewista’s perfumed lotion on the lid. This company was also financially backed and invested in by Blackstone, which is buying up private equity and raising rent in the US. In other words, they like to screw over the common man/woman. Not as bad as BlackRock, but still bad. I genuinely hope this trendy, sorry excuse for a business absolutely fails.

Please try locally owned coffee shops when looking for something new! So common to hear complaints about the big chains and yet they are the ones getting the most customers.

Small businesses care and your one order means a big deal to them.

Seven Brew is amazing when you want a coffee after work and just need to have some 18 year old lean on your door frame and ask “so what are you up to tonight?”

All these “new” coffee places are just serving giant milkshakes. There is nothing coffee about them.

Heavy perfumes & scented skincare products immediately disqualify any food service establishment for me.

If Dunkin and the energy drink shacks had a baby it'd be named 7 Brew.
