Scooter’s Coffee Has Record-Breaking Opening in Moore
What happens when there’s an intersection between the grand opening of a great new coffee provider and the love of coffee by residents of Moore? Jared Dunn, with Scooter’s Coffee, says you get a record-breaking day!
“As someone who has lived and worked in the OKC area for the last 11 years, I know how special the Moore community is,” said Dunn. “We new they would support something new, so we decided to partner with the Moore Public Schools Foundation so that our grand opening would give back to the community in a very real way.”

The Moore community responded in a big way, setting the record for the highest single sales day ever for a franchise that has been around since 1998.
Dunn said, “That’s out of 615 Scooter’s locations across the country. And we were able to do it in a way that benefited the Moore Public Schools Foundation.”
Don and Linda Eckles opened the first Scooter’s drive-thru coffeehouse in Bellevue, Nebraska with a simple formula: great locations, great and speedy customer service, and a commitment to high quality drinks. The Moore location is near the busy intersection of SE 4th and Eastern. Scooter’s menu features a great list of coffee drinks, but is varied enough to offer something for everyone.
“Obviously, we have great coffee drinks like our signature ‘Caramelicious,’” said Dunn. “We also do smoothies. We do conchas, which is a green coffee bean drink that will give you some of the energy, but it's more of a refreshing drink. And we actually just rolled out our own signature Scoot energy drink.”
The new “Scoot! Energy” drinks can be ordered in “Energy Infusion” or “Energy Vertigo Smoothie” options. They offer less sugar and calories than other leading drinks and include flavors like Prickly Pear, Raspberry, Blue Raspberry and Coconut for the infusion drinks or Strawberry, Strawberry Banana, Wildberry, Mango, and Peach for the smoothies.
Another important selling point for Scooter’s is the level of care they have for their coffee beans.
“We directly source our coffee from the growers and partner with them, paying them directly,” said Dunn. “That means we pay above market value for that coffee because we want our growers to be able to have some sort of quality of life. That helps up find the highest quality coffee beans, which we roast that in our own facility in Omaha, Nebraska, and then we blend those for our own specific blends.”
You’ll also find a variety of food items including breakfast burritos and sandwiches, cake bites, cinnamon rolls, muffins, and cookies.
Those are great for an afternoon, pick me up and then we have cookies and we have muffins, We have breakfast sandwiches are everything. Bagel sandwich and our maple waffle sandwich are very, very popular. And then at the end of June, we're actually rolling out a series of kids drinks as well. So we're excited to be able to layer that into we do tea, we do lemonade, we do hot tea, we've got whatever you can kind of imagine from a from a, you know, a refreshing beverage or a snack.
“Our biggest thing is our customer service,” said Dunn. “We strive to find the brightest and best personalities to hire as our baristas. Our tagline is ‘Amazing people serving amazing drinks…amazingly fast.’”
