With music, infectious energy, and free drinks all day, who wouldn't want to go to the grand opening?

With Dutch Bros Coffee opening their first Tucson location and offering free drinks for the day, we knew we had to check it out.

Our Dutch Bros articles have been among our most popular for the year, so we wondered if it would be chaos by the time we arrived. We went around 10 a.m.

The drive-thru line overflowed into the street. However, traffic was controlled and moving along.

Pro-tip — Park in the lot and utilize the walk-up line instead. The wait wasn’t even two minutes — staff walked along the line with tablets to take orders ahead of time.

With music filling the area, colorful drinks spilling out the order window, and tutus bouncing around the lot, the energy was infectious.

Here’s the evidence of our coffee break.
