Top Fuel Espresso is hitting the gas on East McKellips Road, where a new double-lane drive-thru is now pouring lattes for Mesa commuters. The McKellips and Lindsay corridor just picked up the chain’s latest car-centric coffee stop, which marks Top Fuel’s fourth Valley location and its second in Mesa, alongside existing shops in Tempe and Gilbert. Drivers can roll through for the full lineup of flavored lattes, blended drinks and breakfast sandwiches aimed squarely at the morning rush.

New McKellips window built for speed

According to KTAR News 92.3 FM, the new outpost sits just east of Lindsay Road and features dual drive-through lanes meant to keep cars moving instead of stacking up. KTAR also reported that the McKellips shop expands Top Fuel’s footprint across the East Valley, tightening its presence in Mesa.

Brokerage says it handled the deal

A press release from Western Retail Advisors states the firm represented Top Fuel on the McKellips lease and has handled all four Arizona deals so far. In that release, founder Jessica Denison is quoted saying, “Every new shop is a reminder of the people and partnerships that have helped us grow,” a nod to the brand’s local roots and the network behind its expansion.

Menu, hours and what to expect

Top Fuel promotes its house “1968” espresso blend on its official site and highlights specialty drinks like Pomona and Rocky Mountain on its ordering pages. Local ordering platforms show bagels and breakfast sandwiches, including a bacon-avocado melt, and list hours for the McKellips drive-thru alongside details for the chain’s other Mesa location. For anyone who wants to pore over every drink and topping option, the full menu and store information live on Top Fuel’s site and ordering pages.

A welcome from the chamber

The Mesa Chamber marked the opening with a ribbon-cutting on March 26 and lists the address as 2937 E. McKellips Rd in its event posting. For the company and local business boosters, the new drive-thru is being framed as another win for a homegrown Arizona brand that is steadily tightening its grip on the East Valley caffeine circuit.
