The opening of the new Starbucks store in the Willow Brook shopping centre in Bradley Stoke has been delayed by two months. The coffee shop, which was initially due to open alongside a new McDonald's restaurant in August, will now not open its doors until October.
Construction began on the two units in February and was expected to last six months. But Willow Brook has confirmed that the McDonald's will now open in early September, and Starbucks will not open until a month after that.
Starbucks did not give a reason for the delay when approached for comment by Bristol Live. As of today (July 20), they are not advertising for staff at the Bradley Stoke shop on their website.
