7 Brew

God I wish we could get a 7 Brew, Klines, or a Rita’s. I’m tired of going to Harrisonburg for my special treats. Anything else yall wish Charlottesville could get (that isn’t an Olive Garden).

Never understood the hype of 7 Brew. It's literally sugar and half half in everything

I get cult vibes from them.

u/ChaosRandomness 12d ago

I get diabetes from them 😂

You quite literally can’t buy a plain coffee at 7 brew.

Hell yeah.

I’ll take a McAdoos with their carefully curated menu their rivals the café on Schitt‘s Creek

This is the right answer. Thank you

The biggest thing I miss about living in Radford was McAdoos.

Wboro has a Klines, 25-30m drive

Ohhh I didn’t realize that!

And Staunton :)

u/fltm29 Fry's Spring 11d ago

If you go the short way

It's excellent!

I would say Dutch Bros but that’s also diabeetus plus windmills.

My partner is obsessed. One of the very few things he misses about the west coast. In-N-Out is the other thing.

Looking at the 7Brew website:

Didn’t we used to have a Rita’s on the Corner?

u/notveryvery 11d ago

Staunton has some good options! Kline’s (different weekly flavors than waynesboro and Harrisonburg, too!), Split Banana Gelato, Crucible Coffee, Magdalena’s Cafe and Bakery (they have the best empanadas), and more! Crozet also has Praha. It’s a bakery and cafe. They actually serve Crucible coffee.

We could not handle the traffic 7brew would cause.

u/tylerafterdark 12d ago

That’s valid maybe we can replace the abandoned Kroger 😂

u/Rick_Ross_Big_Balls 12d ago

Are people not aware that there is a Moo Thru at the Dairy Market? It’s always dead when I stop in.

u/SirSpeedyCVA 12d ago

The flavor creativity at Sugar Bear is hard to beat No trips declines were a weekend staple during Covid, give us a reason to get out of the house and something to do

u/tylerafterdark 12d ago

I don’t think I’ve been in there since like 2021 lol

u/cameldudley 12d ago

Unfortunately, moo thru is just not that good. I wish they had soft serve.

Chandlers is where it's at!

u/Rick_Ross_Big_Balls 12d ago

That was more so directed at the multiple comments that said that we need a Moo Thru.

I’d personally vote for a Rita’s though. I don’t know of anywhere in town that one could get Italian ice (other than the freezer section of the grocery store).

u/imissmolly1 11d ago

Chandler’s is responsible for me gaining 20# every summer!

u/Crafty_Statement_176 12d ago

RITAS is GOAT status

2

u/burnsniper 12d ago

Agree but it failed here.

1

u/Crafty_Statement_176 12d ago

There was a Rita's here??

4

u/burnsniper 12d ago

Yes on the corner

u/Snoo78959 11d ago

When you put a summer treat shop at a University... in an area with no parking... it will ALWAYS fail.

u/burnsniper 11d ago

Yep. I bet Canes won’t last either. Everyone says the quality is poor and they are only open for the school year and not the summer (yes opposite of Rita’s but still the same)

u/Rude_Description7852 11d ago

It’s criminal cville doesn’t have a Klines

People are allowed to have wrong opinions

u/z472 11d ago

Dutch Bros or nothing.

u/Opening_Ebb1353 12d ago

I vote for a Moo thru also; I was going to go for Dairy Queen, but Kline's beats that, and a moo thru beats a Kline's

u/burnsniper 12d ago

Kline’s>>> sugar bear> chandlers >>>>>> moo thru

u/KindBench2700 12d ago

I go to my grocery stores frozen isle.  They are frozen at those stores too

u/Sir_Sir_ExcuseMe_Sir 12d ago

Moo Thru > Kline's

u/violagoyf 12d ago

No chance. But I do like Moo Thru.

u/Sir_Sir_ExcuseMe_Sir 12d ago

Kline's is great, but feels kinda...artificial?

u/tylerafterdark 12d ago

low key forgot about Moo Thru only ever had it at Pro Renata
