Doncaster College's new Waterfront development will be the home of the town's newest coffee bar the Campus Coffee Company.

 

The College's favourite on-site coffee service Caffeine Rush, run by Linda McGough at Waterdale, is to be re-born as the Campus Coffee Company in August.

 

Linda has been treating staff, students and passers-by to a well-earned cup of coffee for the last four years under the Caffeine Rush franchise.

 

But now, as the College prepares for new beginnings in a multi-million pound purpose-built building, Linda has decided to make the change, too.

 

Campus Coffee Company will be her own business and will be situated inside the new Hub development, near the escalators Doncaster College is the only College in the country to have escalators.

 

Linda, 38, said: "I am so glad the College have given the go-ahead for me to open up in the Hub. I have got to know a lot of people at the College over the years and have a lot of loyal customers.

 

"I am really looking forward to it. We are changing as a company so we are creating our own image with branded cups and a purpose built bar area but we will continue to serve the same award winning coffee.

 

"Before, I would have to look anxiously at the weather forecast every day to see if I could work because I was based outside, but that is obviously not the case indoors. Staff and students will be able to enjoy my coffee all year round."

 

The new coffee bar is being designed and manufactured by CK Design and Shop fitting Ltd of Bentley. She is also helped out at other sites around town by partner Gary Donald and friend Donna Grady.
