A new smoothie chain is coming to Wichita
Wichita will soon be getting a national smoothie chain.
Hurts Donut owners Aaron and Jenni Courtney said that they are planning to open a Tropical Smoothie Cafe in Wichita later this year.
They’ll be taking over the former Dickey’s Barbecue Pit space at 2768 N. Maize Road and hope to have it open by fall. Jenni Courtney said this is the first of several Tropical Smoothie Cafes they plan to open in Wichita.
Tropical Smoothie Cafe is a chain that started in Destin, Florida, and has 850 stores across the country. In addition to smoothies, it serves sandwiches, flatbreads and quesadillas. There are several in the Kansas City area.
The Courtneys took over Hurts Donut at 7010 W. 21st in 2019 and plan to continue operating it.
