A new Costa Coffee shop is opening in Forest Gate this week.
Scoffs Group, the company behind 109 Costa outlets, is opening its newest branch in Newham.
The grand opening will be on Thursday, November 6 at 8am.
The Forest Gate branch is the first Costa Coffee shop in the area.
The shop is located in the same spot where Jimi Hendrix wrote Purple Haze.
The first 50 customers to arrive at the store will get a goody bag, which has a free coffee and a reusable cup.
This new shop is part of the Scoffs Group's plan to have more stores in London.
They already have Costa Coffee shops in other areas like Walthamstow and Barkingside.
The Scoffs Group said it "eagerly awaits" to start this new chapter on November 6.
