๐โ What’s going on at the Starbucks by the A55 junction for Caerwys? You’d think this drive-thru coffee shop would be bustling with customers by now, but not a single brew has been sold. Built and looking ready since summer, this spot remains mysteriously closed! ๐ฎ

๐ฅ Local TikToker Colin Lyness (@face.your.fears1111) shared a drone video back in August, showing a fully constructed coffee haven that seemed set to welcome visitors any day. Fast forward to November, and the doors are still firmly shut with no official opening date in sight.

๐ ๏ธ There’s plenty of speculation around the delay. From utility connection issues to possible foundation hiccups, no one seems to know why this caffeine fix is being postponed. Motorists and locals passing by have noticed the halt in activity, leading to all sorts of theories.

๐ญ Reactions are mixed. Some people are frustrated, wondering why their new caffeine pitstop hasn’t opened. Others are unfazed, questioning whether we really need another high-priced coffee shop. One cheeky comment even suggested it should’ve been a KFC instead!
๐ Meanwhile, the saga draws parallels to a similar Starbucks project in Queensferry, which faced its own construction setbacks. Enthusiasts of the brand are hoping this site doesnโt encounter the same fate and opens sooner rather than later.
โ So, what’s your take? Would you swing by for a coffee or do you think another bite spot would’ve been better for that location? Share your thoughts!
