Member Press Releases News & Media Posted February 10, 2026 The Human Bean Celebrates Second Laramie Location with Grand Opening on February 10 The Human Bean Share The Human Bean drive-thru is coming to town at 415 S. Johnson St. in Laramie beginning this Tuesday, February 10. Visitors will get a first taste of the drive-thru’s signature offerings, including specialty-grade coffee, real-fruit smoothies, whole-leaf teas, clean caffeine-powered Bright® Energy, and good eats to-go. To celebrate the grand opening, 10% of all proceeds from opening day will be donated to the Laramie Soup Kitchen. Local owners, Matt & Davina Lockhart, say the new location builds on the same premium products and exceptional customer service Laramie guests have come to expect — all served with a signature chocolate-covered espresso bean on top. “Opening another location in Laramie is an exciting milestone for us,” says Lockhart. “This community has shown us incredible support, and we’re proud to celebrate this grand opening by giving back to the Laramie Soup Kitchen on day one.” At The Human Bean, with a bean on top™ is more than just a slogan—it’s a symbol of how the company goes above and beyond for their customers. Every drink is topped with a chocolate-covered espresso bean as a small but meaningful way of showing The Human Bean’s commitment to exceptional service, quality, and delight in every cup. The 27-year-old coffee franchise has found a recipe for success by mixing cheerful baristas with sustainably-sourced coffee and innovative beverage blends. The new Laramie location, while independently-owned, will take part in company-wide givebacks including Coffee for a Cure day in October — The Human Bean’s biggest and longest-running giveback day of the year. Customers will be able to support these efforts simply by enjoying their favorite beverages and bites on special days. Menu favorites include the company’s signature Snowy® Mocha, Java Chip Granita, and proprietary Bright Energy drink made with natural caffeine sourced from green coffee beans. Guests will also find seasonal and specialty drinks on the menu throughout the year, as well as countless ways to customize drinks to their liking. Customers are invited to get a taste of what The Human Bean in West Laramie has to offer from 5 am – 9:30 pm every day, and can prepare for their visit by finding the drink menu and downloading the Rewards App online. _________ About The Human Bean 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.
