From a single drive-through in Grants Pass, Oregon to 1,080+ locations across 18 states — the complete guide to ordering, customizing, and getting the most out of Dutch Bros.
Dutch Bros Coffee was founded in 1992 by brothers Dane and Travis Boersma in Grants Pass, Oregon. What started as a single pushcart selling espresso has grown into the largest drive-through coffee chain in the United States with over 1,080 locations in 18 states.
The company is known for its fast service, friendly "broistas," extensive drink customization, and the proprietary Rebel energy drink line. Dutch Bros went public on the NYSE in 2021 under the ticker symbol "BROS."
Dutch Bros is drive-through only — no seating, no storefronts. This model keeps lines moving fast and allows the company to open locations at a pace of 150+ new stands per year.
Ordering at Dutch Bros is straightforward, but knowing the lingo helps you get exactly what you want:
Choose from Coffee (latte, mocha, breve, americano, cold brew), Rebel Energy, Lemonade, Iced Tea, Chai, Matcha, Dutch Soda, or Frost. This is your starting point.
Pick one or more syrups — vanilla, caramel, hazelnut, coconut, raspberry, strawberry, peach, and 20+ more. Flavors are free to add. You can mix unlimited flavors.
Small (16oz), Medium (24oz), or Large (32oz). Rebel Energy drinks are Medium and Large only. Some specialty drinks like Nitro Cold Brew come in a single size.
Request hot, iced, or blended. Choose your milk (whole, oat, almond, coconut). Add Soft Top (Dutch Bros' signature whipped topping), extra espresso shots, or sugar-free syrups.
