Nottingham coffee shop chain 200 Degrees has expanded all over the UK - but next on the list is closer to home. Fans can already get their caffeine fix at Flying Horse Walk, Carrington Street, and Milton Street.
Today, Tuesday, May 30, the company announced plans for its fourth coffee shop in Nottinghamshire and 20th in total, in West Bridgford. It will be located in the former Oliver Bonas shop in Central Avenue after the fashion and homewares retailer's move to a former bank a few doors away.
200 Degrees first opened at Flying Horse Walk in 2014, starting a new wave of speciality coffee shops in the city serving lattes, cappuccinos and espressos, made from beans roasted nearby in Meadow Lane.

The ink on the deal was still wet when CEO Rob Darby posted a teaser photo on social media of himself outside the new location with the caption: “Stopped for a sandwich to think about what’s next for 200 Degrees Coffee Roasters." It didn’t take long for his eagle-eyed followers to figure out his cryptic message and pinpoint the new premises in Central Avenue in the former Oliver Bonas store.
In a first for 200 degrees, the new shop features a roof terrace, making this the perfect location for summer drinks. Coffee lovers will be able to enjoy their favourite cup of hot, of iced, coffee overlooking views of the avenue.
Rob said: "Nottingham is where it all began for 200 Degrees and the success of our three city shops, particularly Milton Street which opened last summer, has been phenomenal.

“We’ve had our sights set on West Bridgford for a long time, as it’s where our co-founder Tom and I have made our home. It’s also the location of our Meadow Lane Roast House, which provides all the coffee we need for our 20-shop estate, eight barista schools, wholesale partners and online coffee customers.
"When the deal was confirmed, I couldn’t wait to share the news, so I jumped straight onto socials to 'soft launch' the announcement, resulting in a mild panic from the marketing team and our PR agency. West Bridgford is a thriving location, occupied by other popular brands and valued wholesale customers such as Birds Bakery and Forde’s, and it’s an exciting opportunity to join the buzzing food and drink scene there.
"We’ve often been asked when we’d be setting up shop in West Bridgford, so we’re looking forward to serving some of our long-time 200 Degrees supporters a little closer to home.”
It’s been a busy month for the independent coffee roaster already, as its 19th shop in Chester opened on Saturday May 27 , and the team are keen to crack on with the next project.
