The opening of the new store comes after many requests from fans to open a branch in the Scottish capital. Another branch is set to open in Princes Street in February, with plans also to open stores in Glasgow later this year.

The coffee chain currently has branches in London and Manchester in the UK, as well as in New York, Boston and Washington DC in America.
