Allie Lahti, the Local Market Lead for Dutch Bros Coffee, expressed her enthusiasm: "Opening in the Chicago area has always been a dream for us at Dutch Bros, and Melrose Park is just the beginning. We’ve already felt so much love from this community, and we’re so grateful to be here. Our crew is stoked to bring the energy and start serving our customizable drinks in Melrose Park!"
The Melrose Park shop is not just the first of many planned openings in the Chicagoland area but also signifies Dutch Bros Coffee's continual growth across Illinois, with existing locations already operational in Urbana, Fairview Heights, Mt. Vernon, and Edwardsville. With an eye on future expansion, additional shops are set to launch in neighborhoods like Rockford, New Lenox, and Buffalo Grove within the coming summer.
Founded in
1992 in Grants Pass, Oregon, Dutch Bros began when two brothers purchased an espresso machine and experimented with coffee, leading to the vibrant culture and energetic environment they are known for today. These locations feature singular experiences that include upbeat music, enthusiastic 'broistas'—Dutch Bros' unique take on baristas—and a strong emphasis on speed, quality, and exceptional customer service.
Menu offerings at Dutch Bros Coffee are as dynamic as the company itself. Customers can choose from a rich variety of handcrafted beverages, including specialty coffees, smoothies, tea, lemonade, and their exclusive Dutch Bros Rebel® energy drink. Additionally, they serve Myst Energy Refreshers™, and nitrogen-infused cold brew coffee. All these options ensure that there’s something for everyone to enjoy.
Aside from providing tasty beverages, Dutch Bros is dedicated to making a positive impact within the communities they serve. The company engages with local organizations and initiatives aimed at enriching their neighborhoods, embodying the philosophy of "making a massive difference one cup at a time."
As they set foot in Melrose Park, Dutch Bros Coffee is excited to share their vibrant culture and goal of radiating kindness with everyone. By focusing on community relationships, Dutch Bros Coffee is keen to establish a meaningful presence in the Midwest.
