Why is Dutch Bros Coffee<\/a> so popular?<\/p>\n

In the past 20 years, the franchised chain has gone from two locations to 13 in Fresno and Clovis. There are 33 between Madera and Porterville.<\/p>\n

At least four more are on the way. See our story about where they\u2019re opening next<\/a>.<\/p>\n

So why is this place so popular?<\/p>\n

Watch our video above for our food reporter\u2019s take on it.<\/p>\n

Mainly, its about:<\/p>\n

The vibe: Loud music. Super friendly \u201cbroistas.\u201d Limited-edition stickers that people line up for. Fundraising for good causes.<\/p>\n

The youth: The customer base skews younger<\/a>. Those consumers like the sweet drinks and late hours. They\u2019re the ones lining up at the Blackstone and McKinley avenues drive-thru, which is open 24 hours.<\/p>\n

More than just coffee: You can\u2019t get even a cup a hot drip black coffee here (but you can get an Americano<\/a>, an espresso with hot water). In addition to blended drinks, there\u2019s protein coffee, energy drinks and toppings such as sprinkles. You can even get a sour candy straw with your drink.<\/p>\n
