The store was officially open for business on May 27, 2024, but today marked the ceremonial opening with the Kenosha Area Chamber of Commerce organizing the ribbon-cutting. “So it’s honestly been a great opportunity for people here to try us out. Good for us to round out our training too and get ready for normal operations,” said Pennington.

“We have everything, really. So we have our 7 Originals, which are unique. Our Blondies – our number one seller, which is caramel and vanilla. And a Brevet, which is a creamier version of a latte. We have 13 sugar-free flavors too. We have milk alternatives. We have our own energy drink that you can mix different fruit flavors in with. We have something called the 7 Fresh, which is like an Italian soda. Lemonades, teas, smoothies, shakes, really all beverages.”

“It’s the experience. We’re a revolutionary experience. We’re very fast-paced, high energy, very positive. You know, our team is the most important thing. Our team is what makes this place special. We have awesome people that work here. We work really hard and try and give the best customer experience we can.”

    1. Gross? Who cares? Seems like you’re jumping to a conclusion with having zero context on the relationship. Maybe they’re family? Maybe they’re friends? Maybe they are all so excited to be apart of this new business that they are embracing each other. Not everyone is a creep. You sound like a Karen.

      1. Coming from the same people who love to cry about groomers and pedos we ignore this? Totally inappropriate.

        1. Watch the video, the girl initiates it. Better change the witch hunt to her troll.

          Way to try to take a nice feel good story and taint it.

  1. Kenosha has become just like the suburbs in Hellinois. Stoplights and crazy traffic everywhere with overpriced coffee joints on every corner. Deport every single flatlander.
