Second Filling Station Opens Today

Outside of the major chains, drive-thru coffee isn’t widely available in the metro area. The second Filling Station coffee shop is hoping to change that. The modern coffee stand, located in the shopping plaza at the corner of Westport Road and Southwest Trafficway, is housed within a former instant photo shop.

Eight white stools sit on the concrete floor to the right of the service counter. The shop’s signature cookies will be available — think about Snickerdoodle — as well as everything from drip coffee to a macchiato. The shop in Westport joins the original location at 2980 McGee Trafficway.
