Frappuccino fans and latte lovers will soon be able to get their Starbucks fix on Borrowmeadow Road, as work is well underway on the chain’s next Stirling drive-thru branch.

The coffee shop, located off Springkerse Roundabout, has been on the cards for a while.

Planning permission for its signage was requested back in September 2024, as featured in our regular Planning Ahead round-up.

Those signs have now gone up and the drive-thru’s car park is being built.

Another Starbucks drive-thru opened off the A84 Drip Road roundabout in late-2021, and the coffee giant also opened a branch in the Thistles shopping centre in September last year.

It’s not yet known when the new Borrowmeadow Road drive-thru will open for business, but here’s a peek at how it currently looks as construction takes place.

Though it’s a bit of a building site – literally – signs are promising that the coffee will be flowing before too long. Image: Alex Watson/DC Thomson
The exterior of the drive-thru appears to be complete, though there’s still a lot to be done outside. Image: Alex Watson/DC Thomson
