Dutch Bros Coffee<\/a> just opened a new drive-thru about 150 feet from an existing drive-thru.<\/p>\n

No, the market is not so saturated that the coffee shops are opening side by side \u2014 even though there are a lot of Dutch Bros opening in the Fresno area<\/a>.<\/p>\n

But the new location at the southwest corner of Ashlan and Willow avenues (at the Chestnut Diagonal) is a replacement for the very first Dutch Bros that opened in Fresno; a 400-square-foot building opened in 2006.<\/p>\n

The new building is 1,190 square feet. It also has a two drive-thru lanes that merge into one, meaning it can pack more cars in a smaller space instead of having a line snake throughout the parking lot.<\/p>\n

It also has a walk-up window, but not an indoor lobby with seating.<\/p>\n

The bigger size means the building can hold more work stations and equipment, said Jacob Cantu, marketing and events manager at Dutch Bros Coffee Fresno.<\/p>\n

The changes also mean Dutch Bros can take orders ahead of time through the Dutch Bros app, something they couldn\u2019t do at the old location.<\/p>\n

All the changes should speed up the process at the popular drink spot, \u201callowing us to serve more cars efficiently than the previous location,\u201d Cantu said.<\/p>\n

The original Dutch Bros location is up for lease.<\/p>\n

The new location is open from 5 a.m. to 11 p.m. daily.<\/p>\n
