THE exact date Marks and Spencer's beloved cafe is set to close has been revealed. The cafe's closure will be followed by the store's shutdown ahead of a huge change. M&S has confirmed it will be pulling down the shutters on The Docks Dundee Cafe on July 6.
The fan-favourite cafe was part of the M&S Simply Food store in Gallagher, Dundee, Scotland . The adjacent food shop at the Gallagher location will then follow with the last day set for July 15. In a Facebook post, the retailer wrote: "The Docks Dundee Café will be closing on Saturday 6th July.
"The last day of Store trading is Monday 15th July." The move comes after the Murraygate Dundee store announced it will be closing on the same day. But it's not all gloom and doom as M&S is planning to open a brand-new megastore in a Scottish retail park just days after.
The Murraygate and Gallagher branches will be replaced by a massive new location at Gallagher Retail Park. Shoppers have been told they can expect to pick up incredible deals when it opens at 9am on Tuesday, July 16. The post read: "On Tuesday 16th July, our new-better-than ever store, Dundee Gallagher Retail Park, will open its doors at 9am.
"We're looking forward to welcoming all our customers into the new store and coffee shop!" Renovations have been underway to get the new store ready after it replaced the former DW Sports unit. The new full-line store is part of M&S' £30million investment in its Scottish stores. Locals will enjoy a bigger, fresh-market style.
