A brand new Starbucks drive thru in Darlington is set to be open for business in a matter of days - here's all the details.
The latest addition to the Faverdale retail development is American coffee chain Starbucks - and it's been confirmed to open on Thursday, June 20.
Plans were first approved in 2020 as part of a new development which included a Lidl and Home Bargains which are already open.
Pictures have for the past few months shown the building, which includes a drive thru, with signs saying it was to open "soon".
Now, a bold sign states the new coffee spot will be open bright and early at 6am on Thursday.

This latest outpost of the American coffee giant will be the first in Darlington since Starbucks on Northgate closed its doors for good in September 2017.
The town centre location was open for ten years, and 15 jobs were lost after bosses made the "difficult decision" to close.
Currently, the closest Starbucks to Darlington is a drive thru at Bishop Auckland's retail park.
