7 Brew will officially open its first Shreveport location at 9124 Mansfield Road on November 2, 2026. In celebration of the expansion, the company is hosting a charity drive to benefit The Center for Children & Families.
Why it matters
The pre-opening event allows the community to contribute directly to The Center for Children & Families while sampling the chain's beverage menu. This effort supports a nonprofit that has served local families since 2015.
The charity event runs from 9 a.m. to 4 p.m. this Friday and from 10 a.m. to 4 p.m. on Saturday and Sunday. Participants receive free small beverages in exchange for donations.
