A growing global coffee chain is opening another store in Kent.
Black Sheep Coffee is to open a branch in Bluewater Shopping Centre, Greenhithe.
A large sign has been spotted, which covers the unit and says “coming soon”.
It is located on the upper floor of the shopping centre, by clothing store Next.
Black Sheep Coffee serves drinks and snacks, as well as a variety of coffee beans from around the world that can be ordered from its website.
Co-founders Eirik and Gabriel started the business back in 2013.
The name is inspired from the pair going against market trends and becoming the "Black Sheep" of the coffee world.
Currently they have more than 60 stores throughout the UK including branches in Manchester, Birmingham and London.
On its website, more branches have been revealed for Kent – both The Riverside Centre in Canterbury and Bromley High Street have been named.
A planning application was also approved for one in Mount Pleasant Road, Tunbridge Wells, with “opening soon” and “we are hiring” signs put up around the building.
A spokesperson from Black Sheep Coffee said: “We're absolutely thrilled to be opening in Bluewater in the coming weeks.
“We'll be serving our full range of single-origin coffees and extensive milk and alt-milk options, along with our signature Norwegian waffles, organic smoothies & shakes, and freshly baked pastries.
“Our customers can still expect to come in and get their regular coffee, but with the Black Sheep twist, an immersive urban experience combined with music and art.”
