SAN DIEGO (FOX 5/KUSI) — Drive-thru coffee chain Dutch Bros. continues its expansion in northern San Diego County, opening a novel location in Escondido this fall.
Dutch Bros. announced Tuesday it plans to open its second Escondido location at 507 W Washington Ave. in overdue summer or early fall 2024. The first Escondido location opened last year.

The company said in December that a novel location would open in Vista in early 2024, but there’s no word yet on when exactly that will be. The novel location, which will be at 2665 S Melrose Dr. in Vista, is still listed on Dutch Bros Website as “opening soon”.
