7 Brew will open its Mission drive-thru stand on July 27 at 101 South Shary Road, where the location page already lists the shop as coming soon. A project tracker places the build in Hidalgo County on N. Shary Rd. in the North Sharyland Crossing area, with an estimated value of about $1.3 million and a footprint of roughly 541 square feet.

That size says a lot about the kind of coffee experience 7 Brew is bringing into Mission. The chain describes itself as a drive-thru brand built around being “fast” and “friendly,” and says its system now includes 700+ stands across 38 states, 45,000+ Brew Crew members, and 20,000+ drink combinations. Forbes described 7 Brew in 2023 as a drive-thru-only concept, while Fast Casual said the company doubled its footprint to 600 units in 2025. USA TODAY also ran a July 10, 2026 roundup on 7 Brew openings around the country that month, underscoring how quickly the brand has moved from regional curiosity to national player.

Mission already has a different kind of coffee mix on the ground. Coffee Artista serves the Mission Texas area with breakfast favorites, lunch, and a cozy café setting, while RICARDI café pairs coffee with brunch, artisan pizza, wine, and beer. Other local listings near North Shary Road point to shops such as Kayala Coffee at 2138 E Griffin Pkwy and La Concheria Cafe at 1625 N Conway Ave, giving the city a range that runs from sit-down café stops to quick neighborhood pickups.

The new 7 Brew landing at North Sharyland Crossing pushes hardest on convenience, and that is the bet the chain has made in suburb-friendly markets like Mission. A local post tied to the project says the grand opening is set for Monday, July 27, 2026, and local coffee talk has already treated the arrival as welcome news for Mission coffee lovers.

What Mission gets is another recognizable chain and another option for commuters who want a drink without leaving the car. What gets tested is whether a 541-square-foot drive-thru can win habits quickly enough to pull traffic away from the slower café model already built by Mission’s independent coffee shops.
