The Great Exeter Cafe Boom

Caffe Nero x 2, Starbucks... how many new coffee shops does Exeter need?

Caffe Nero have just opened TWO new shops, one in Queen Street, on the site of the former Birmingham and Midshires Building Society (whatever happened to them?). Another in High Street itself, just opposite McDonalds.

Starbucks have nearly completed their new cafe, on the site of the old Copper Mine amusement arcade, also in Queen Street, though in less popular area and with no prospect of tables and chairs outside in the summer as the pavement is too narrow. Effings, opposite, is a failure already, I would guess.
