Independent coffee shop and Barista school 200 Degrees Coffee is set to make its Birmingham debut at the revamped The Grand building on Colmore Row.
The Nottingham-based coffee company has taken a 10-year lease on a 1,500 sq ft store at a rent of £90,000 pa with landlord, Hortons’ Estate.
Set up in 2012 by Tom Vincent and Rob Darby, 200 Degrees Coffee also plans a 16-seat barista school at the property.
The store will open in early summer 2016. 200 Degrees Coffee is the fourth retail tenant to sign up at the newly restored The Grand, following lettings to shoemaker Crockett & Jones and bar and restaurants The Alchemist and Gusto.
Hortons’ has invested £14m in the restoration of The Grand to date. Tony Green, chief executive of Hortons’, said: “Leasing activity on the retail space at The Grand is gathering pace, with five of the 10 units now let and strong interest being shown in the remaining units.
FHP Property Consultants advised 200 degrees. Wright Silverwood is letting agents on the scheme.
