A Scottish airport has announced changes to its selection of food and drink outlets as a new brand prepares to open this year.
A spokesperson for Edinburgh Airport yesterday advised travellers that they may 'see some movement' around its cafes and coffee shops from this week onwards as work is carried out.
The space next to International Arrivals 2 before security, which is currently occupied by Starbucks, will soon be taken over by Black Sheep Coffee.

The popular London brand was first established in 2013, when university flatmates Gabriel Shohet and Eirik Holth chose to quit their jobs and pursue a career that would 'challenge the establishment, take down the big corporate brands and rid the world of boring, average tasting coffee'.

Next time you're in the airport you'll see movement around some of our cafes and coffee shops, with a new brand on the way...
Black Sheep Coffee shops have since become a common fixture on high streets across the UK, with nine to be found across Scotland.
Alongside a range of barista prepared coffees made with Roubusta beans, their cafes serve a selection of pastries, toasties and bagels.
