A High Street coffee shop in Wiltshire has closed its doors to customers during an “exciting” refurbishment.
Costa Coffee temporarily shut its Chippenham High Street branch on Thursday, July 25, ahead of a one-week refurbishment.
The national chain plans to reopen the store on Thursday, August 1, following the completion of these works.
Over the weekend of Saturday, July 27, the unit was cordoned off while construction crews worked at the site.
A notice was placed in the shopfront apologising for any inconvenience caused by the refurbishment.

A Costa Coffee spokesperson said that the renovations were part of an “exciting” project that will refresh the store.
This will include replacing the furniture and the creation of a “bright” indoor space.
They said: “Our Chippenham High Street Costa Coffee store temporarily closed on Thursday, July 25, to undergo an exciting refresh.
“The store re-opens to the local community on Thursday, August 1, with new, modern furniture and a bright interior.”
The refurbishment comes at a time when Costa looks set to face increased competition on Chippenham High Street.
Earlier this year, Starbucks was announced as one of the new occupants of the former Wilko building.
