The coffee shop chain flung open the doors to its new store on the town's High Street on Thursday (November 14).

It has been created at the site of the former Halifax bank, which closed in January, creating nine jobs.

What else can customers find at the new coffee shop?

The new Starbucks offers customers a chance to book a space to sit for up to three hours in advance of their visit - and even order food and beverages to their table.
