Coffee on the go.
We have no shortages of Starbucks in Ireland, but this is definitely a first.
The biggest coffee chain in the world have opened up a drive-thru store in Shannon, for when you’re really in a rush.
We can picture this catching on all around the country.
The store is located in Shannon Free Zone, which is one of Ireland’s biggest industrial parks.
The drive-thru opened on Tuesday, and we won’t be one bit surprised if it’s the first of many.
Ray O’Driscoll, managing director of Shannon Commercial Properties, said:
“We are currently working on the biggest investment programme of the millennium years in the Shannon Free Zone.”
“We’re developing world-class property solutions and providing facilities for amenities such as Starbucks is a key part of our redevelopment strategy.”
The store will also feature outdoor seating if you’re not in a mad rush, but we think the drive-thru is the best thing about this place.
An airport and a drive-thru Starbucks? That’s just cheating, Shannon.
