Gloria Jean’s Coffees, an innovator in the specialty coffee segment providing fresh, premium blends and award-winning roasts, announced its newest drive thru location is now open in Pharr, Texas, in the Pharr Town Center in front of Crunch Fitness. Owned and operated by Dinah Oranday, owner of the McAllen location in the La Plaza Mall located about 10 minutes from the new Pharr location, this new drive thru storefront will bring nearly 20 new jobs to the local community. With a continued focus on merging quality with convenience, the new Gloria Jean’s Coffees drive thru location in Pharr showcases the brand’s newer store design which continues the beloved coffee chain’s growth from malls to more accessible avenues.
“We’re so excited to have our brand-new drive thru location officially open in Pharr, and we’ve been sincerely humbled by the overwhelmingly positive response we’ve received from our community,” says Oranday. “Our guests are busy, and we’re thrilled to be able to provide them with the same delicious experience they’ve come to expect at locations like our McAllen storefront in the La Plaza Mall, but with the added convenience of a drive thru. We love that we’re making it easier than ever for coffee lovers to grab a cup of Gloria Jean’s Coffees whenever they want, and we look forward to serving guests in Pharr for many years to come.”
