Whilst towns like Ventnor benefit from an excellent range of independent cafes offering quality coffee, Newport is about to welcome another large coffee shop chain.
Following the fairly recent arrival of Costa Coffee to St James’ Street in Newport, it’s been confirmed that Starbucks will be opening a shop on the same street in October.
The shop will be opened in partnership with franchisee 23.5 Degrees and as well as competing with the chain Costa Coffee, they’ll have to win over the loyalty of coffee lovers who frequent several independently-owned cafes in the town.
