Starbucks coffee has announced plans to serve beer and wine in the evenings as part of the Evenings Programme, which is currently very popular in the US.
The newly renovated Stansted Airport store will be the first UK location to offer the brand’s Starbucks Evenings Programme which will also see a range of hot meals served.
Meals such as chorizo and prawn skewers with chili ketchup, truffle mac & cheese and braised British beef will be on offer. There are also plans to extend the programme to other stores.
Depending on the location, Starbucks Evenings in the UK will be available from 4pm each day.
VP of marketing and category for Starbucks EMEA, Ian Cranna, said: “We are delighted to launch the first Evenings Programme in the UK. Providing a welcoming coffeehouse environment has always been our focus and now we can offer something new for the evening too. I think our customers will love the new range of terrific food and carefully selected wines and beers which will provide even more choice and reasons to visit us later in the day.”
