Now I know the last thing Newbury needs right now is another coffee shop but is this place actually going to open?  I can't recall ever seeing a notice for a shop 'coming soon' for so long.

How about the other vacant units in ParkWay, does anybody have any insight in to when these will be let?

It won't open.

I only know this as the guy who was going to manage was renting a place near me, moved all his belongings from Italy into the house, waited 8 months (whilst still renting and working in London) and then had to give up.

It would appear he is not alone : http://www.catererandhotelkeeper.co.uk/articles/23/8/2013/349651/lavazza-accused-of-throwing-franchisees-to-the-wolves.htm
