Progress is picking up at the future home of 7 Brew Coffee in Cornelia, where crews have moved beyond demolition and into the early stages of construction.
The former Subway building in the shopping center alongside Ross and Goodwill has now been completely demolished and removed. In its place, construction crews are actively preparing the site for new development, with heavy equipment on-site and groundwork well underway.
Large dirt mounds, grading activity, and excavation equipment indicate the project has entered the site preparation phase, a key step before foundation work begins. Orange safety fencing surrounds the property as crews continue shaping the lot.
A temporary banner posted along the roadside confirms what many in the community have been anticipating: 7 Brew is “coming soon.”
Contractor Identified
Signage at the site identifies WH Bass, Inc. as the general contractor overseeing the project. The company is handling early construction efforts as the site transitions toward vertical development.

Momentum Building
While no structures have been built yet, the visible activity marks a significant milestone in the project’s progression. With demolition complete and grading underway, the transformation from the former sandwich shop to a modern drive-thru coffee stand is clearly in motion.
An official opening date has still not been announced.
What to Expect
Once complete, the Cornelia location will bring the fast-growing 7 Brew Coffee brand to Habersham County. Known for its high-energy, drive-thru-focused model, the Arkansas-based chain offers a wide range of customizable drinks, including coffee, energy drinks, smoothies, teas, and shakes.
Designed for speed and convenience, 7 Brew locations often feature baristas taking orders outside to keep lines moving efficiently.
Looking Ahead
For now, the project remains in its early construction phase, but steady on-site activity suggests progress will continue in the coming weeks.
As development moves forward, Habersham News will continue to provide updates on construction and any announcements regarding an opening timeline.
