Weekender: Coffee brand opens eleventh outlet
Intrepid customers braved the rain yesterday to attend the opening of speciality coffee roaster 200 Degrees’ eleventh outlet.
The Nottingham success story’s new 80-seater coffee shop at the McArthurGlen East Midlands Designer Outlet is set to bring 16 new jobs to the region.
Festive shoppers descended on the new shop to enjoy a taste of the firm’s Christmas offering, including a range of spiced hot drinks and warming winter soups.
Tom Vincent, co-founder and director at 200 Degrees, said: “We are delighted to be opening our first out of town location in the UK and look forward to welcoming staff and visitors to the outlet in time for the festive season.
“As a prime retail destination in the East Midlands, we are honoured to be serving our freshly roasted coffee blends, food and new festive options to shoppers, alongside our range of high-calibre brewing equipment and gadgets for coffee lovers to recreate the 200 Degrees experience at home.
“As it’s that special time of year, we will have our highly trained staff on hand for advice and to demonstrate equipment to anyone looking to purchase for themselves or for loved ones in the lead up to Christmas.
“We’re keen to welcome fellow workers and flagging shoppers looking to enjoy quality coffee, a bite to eat, use of the WIFI and a relaxed, unique shopping experience. We’ll also be open early for freshly made breakfasts and our takeaway service is second to none if you’re looking to grab a brew and a bite to go.”
