PJ's Coffee Expands Baton Rouge Footprint with Location Opening This AugustBaton Rouge, LA  (RestaurantNews.comPJ’s Coffee is bringing more of its signature New Orleans-style beignets and hospitality to Louisiana’s capital with a new location coming soon at 3384 Government St. at the corner of Acadian Thruway, marking another milestone in the brand’s continued growth across its home state.

The location will also feature a drive-thru, providing guests with a convenient way to enjoy their favorite drinks on the go.

About PJ’s Coffee

Phyllis Jordan, a pioneer in the coffee industry, founded PJ’s Coffee of New Orleans in 1978 and demonstrated that better beans, superior roasting techniques and pure passion for the art of coffee-making mattered. In 2008, the company was purchased by New Orleans natives and brothers Paul, Steven, and Scott Ballard. PJ’s Coffee serves a wide variety of hot, iced and frozen coffee beverages using only the best quality Arabica coffee beans, as well as organic tea and fresh breakfast pastries. PJ’s Original Cold Brew™ Iced Coffee is brewed daily using a special cold-drip process that protects the flavor and strength of the beans while producing a coffee that is two-thirds less acidic – a process and technique developed by its founder and used for more than 45 years at all PJ’s locations. Bags of whole-bean coffee and single-serve cups of PJ’s Coffee are available for sale in-store and online. With more than 185 operating stores, including four international locations, PJ’s Coffee continues to grow in the U.S. and abroad.
