KNOXVILLE, Tenn. (WVLT) - City of Knoxville records have revealed what’s planned to replace the Denton’s on Kingston Pike in the Bearden area: a 7 Brew drive-through coffee shop.
Several permit applications listed in the city’s system list a project title of “7 Brew.” Those applications include a demolishing permit and permission to build signage.
It’ll be the second Knoxville location for 7 Brew, according to the business’ website, which lists a location on Parkside Drive. The menu itself features coffee, sodas, teas, smoothies, shakes and bakery items.
The location will also sit across the street from a Dutch Bros. coffee shop, another chain of drive-through businesses geared towards coffee enthusiasts.
Denton’s owners announced the longtime family-owned restaurant would be closing in July. The fair food joint had been operating since 1997.
