Motorway services operator Welcome Break have announced opening dates for their Burger King and Starbucks outlets at Newport Pagnell Services in Milton Keynes.

The company have confirmed the Starbucks Coffee unit will re-open on Tuesday 26th May.

Burger King will then follow on Thursday 4th June.

KFC, which is also located at the site, has already opened and is serving customers.

John Diviney, CEO at Welcome Break, told RetailTimes: "As the lockdown slowly eases and people around the UK gradually return to work we are delighted to be opening up these great brands."

"It will provide a much-needed boost to those on the road and to support Britain working again. We very much look forward to welcoming back our returning customers."

"The health and safety of our colleagues and customers remains our absolute priority and we will continue to be guided by advice from Public Health England at all times."

Yesterday, McDonalds announced they are re-opening their Drive Thru lanes in nearby Dunstable and Luton.

And McDonalds franchisee in Milton Keynes, Ken Tomkins, told MKFM earlier this month that he hopes to open sites in our city soon.
