PJ’s Coffee to open at seven Estepp Energy locations around Lexington, according to report

PJ’s Coffee is expected to expand in Central Kentucky by moving into seven Estepp Energy locations in and around Lexington, according to the Lexington Herald-Leader, as reported by WKYT.

The report ties the expected openings to Estepp Energy, a local operator of fuel and convenience-store locations, where PJ’s Coffee would be added as a coffee concept at multiple sites rather than a single store.

The announcement, published Tuesday, centers on retail activity at established Estepp Energy stops used by commuters and travelers in the Lexington area, potentially changing what customers see when they stop for fuel, food, or other convenience items.

While the specific details of the rollout were not included in the WKYT summary, the plan indicates a coordinated expansion across several locations, suggesting work would be required at each participating site to accommodate the coffee brand within the existing store footprint.

For neighborhood customers and motorists, adding PJ’s Coffee to a familiar set of stops could affect day-to-day choices, including where people go to buy coffee, snacks, or breakfast items tied to morning and midday travel patterns.

For the companies involved, the expansion represents a new local footprint for PJ’s Coffee and a refresh for Estepp Energy’s retail offerings, with any changes likely coordinated through franchise or brand partnership arrangements tied to the coffee chain’s operating standards.

The WKYT report directs readers to the Lexington Herald-Leader for the underlying details of the expansion, and it provides the core information that the openings are planned for seven Estepp Energy locations in the Lexington region. No additional information on timing or the exact site list was included in the WKYT coverage provided for this item.
