Starbucks
Whilst Moto and RoadChef are already using high-street coffee brands, Welcome Break's main one is their own-brand Coffee Primo. They are now trialling the High Street with Starbucks. The trial first started on the 12th May 2006, and since then no word has been said about whether or not it will be rolled out any further. One can presume it hasn't been that successful, because many of their services are being re-vamped and getting a WH Smith store, but no Starbucks. All of Extra's new services are getting a Starbucks facility.
They have 6,000 stores across the world (most of which, it seems, are in London!) and provide coffee for everyone - both on the go or looking to relax. It started in the 1970s and they're still growing today!
