# Locally-Owned, Nationally-Known: The Human Bean Coming Soon to Chantilly

## Story

Baristas at The Human Bean will begin pouring coffee and other specialty beverages at 24665 Gateway Village PI beginning this Fall 2024. Customers are invited to come get a first taste of the drive-thru’s offerings, including specialty-grade coffee, real-fruit smoothies, whole-leaf teas, and hot breakfast items to-go.

Local owners of the new Human Bean location, J&P, LLC, say the staff looks forward to providing above-par products and exceptional customer service — all with a signature chocolate-covered espresso bean on top.

With a reputation for cheerful baristas and sustainably-sourced coffee, The Human Bean coffee company has grown from a single location in southern Oregon to a nationwide brand over the last 25 years. Drive-thru stands throughout the U.S. are primarily owned and operated by individual franchisees like J&P, LLC, who have a passion for bringing “coffee with a smile” to their communities.

“We’re thrilled to bring a new coffee experience to Chantilly. Giving customers something to look forward to and sharing a special moment with a friendly face, it’s really what it’s all about,” says Scott Anderson, COO of The Human Bean.

Customers can join the feel-good vibes by participating in several fundraising events throughout the year, including the brand-wide Coffee for a Cure day in October. All of The Human Bean drive-thrus participate in the fundraisers each year, and collectively raise hundreds of thousands of dollars for cancer prevention and treatment.

All of the money raised by the Chantilly drive-thru location will stay in the community and be given to a local organization of the staff’s choosing.

Customers are invited to get a taste of what The Human Bean in Chantilly has to offer, and can prepare for their visit by finding The Human Bean drink menu and Rewards App online.

With a passion for creating happy ‘Human Beans’, the company’s drive-thrus around the U.S. have established a reputation for friendly baristas, high-quality coffee, and innovative flavors. The Human Bean opened its first drive-thru espresso stand in Ashland, Oregon in 1998, and currently supports over 260 locations open or under development in 22 states.
