I don't know how the town I live in can some how support two Greggs, a Starbucks, two Caffe Neros (Caffes Nero?), a Pret A Manger, and a Costa Coffee all with in a few hundred meters of each other, but the local bakery that opened a second location in the train station (basically on the high street) couldn't keep it open. At least the bakery still exists, just not in the center of town, and not where I'm getting on a train.

- timeinput 1y agoI'm sure you're right. It's just meant there isn't a coffee shop at the train station for six months. Greggs doesn't want to open a third branch there sadly.
