A Memphis-based coffee shop has plans to open a new location in a Shelby County suburb.
Ramblin’ Joe’s Coffee is increasing its footprint with plans to occupy 3,000-square-foot-of-space in the roughly 12,000-square-foot Landmark Center Strip Commercial Center in Germantown. The new Ramblin’ Joe’s Coffee in Germantown will be located in Suite 101, 1227 S. Germantown Road adjacent to Priority Pet Urgent Care.
The new Germantown Ramblin’ Joe’s will go into the former Simmons Bank location that is currently located at 7550 W. Farmington Blvd., Germantown.
The Germantown Design Review Commission unanimously approved July 28 on its consent agenda a site modification
request for patio and landscaping for the new Germantown Ramblin’ Joe’s project.
Ramblin’ Joe’s request to the city is to create a new patio for outdoor seating and bicycle parking, according to DRC staff reports. The Ramblin’ Joe’s will also include indoor seating and drive-thru.
In June, the suburb’s design review commission unanimously approved a sign package for the upcoming Ramblin’ Joe’s.
