CHELSEA – A second Scooter’s Coffee location is set to open along the U.S. 280 corridor in the city of Chelsea with construction now underway.

The new business will be located at 160 Atchison Drive next to Arby’s and Buffalo Wild Wings.

The new location will have a newly-built drive-thru kiosk model. The opening of the business will provide approximately 15 job opportunities for the area.

“New Scooter’s Coffee locations are chosen by a number of factors,” a representative said in an official Scooter’s Coffee press release. “A lot of times, the franchisees have a connection to the community. Other times, we see that a community shares our core values. But no matter what the case may be, we see a need for specialty coffee in your area.”

The business’s menu features an array of specialty espresso beverages, single-origin coffee, fruit smoothies, Red Bull infusions, cold brew, bake-from-scratch pastries and breakfast options. Its signature drink is the “Caramelicious.”

Scooter’s Coffee also recently released its ready-to-drink canned flavored lattes.

This is the second new Scooter’s Coffee location announced recently along the U.S. 280 corridor. The other will be at 4725 U.S., Birmingham, 35242 next to Chipotle and Home Depot and is already under construction.

Scooter’s Coffee was founded in 1998 and now has more than 550 stores in 28 states nationwide.
