Dutch Bros Is Coffee Coming to McDonough: First Location on Track for Q2 2026 Opening

Dutch Bros was founded in 1992 in Grants Pass, Oregon, when two brothers bought a double-head espresso machine, turned up the music, and began experimenting with 100 pounds of coffee beans. What started as a small operation has grown into a major player in the drive-thru beverage space, now operating more than 1,177 locations across 25 states.

Visitors to the new Dutch Bros will be greeted with upbeat music, friendly “broistas” (the company’s energetic take on baristas), and a commitment to outstanding speed, quality, and service. Every drink is handcrafted to order, ensuring each customer leaves satisfied.

The menu features a wide variety of options, including:

  • Specialty coffee drinks
  • Smoothies and freezes
  • Teas
  • The exclusive Dutch Bros Rebel™ energy drink
  • Nitrogen-infused cold brew coffee

Whether you’re craving a classic latte, a refreshing Rebel, or something fully customized, the McDonough team aims to deliver a quick and uplifting stop that fits perfectly into busy Atlanta-area mornings and afternoons.
