New US coffee chain plans to take on Starbucks in London

Key to the Blank Street Coffee formula is to undersell the ubiquitous competitors

A Starbucks coffee shop in London faces a new competitor in Blank Street Coffee which aims to undercut their prices.

Blank Street Coffee, the fast-growing New York-based chain, is bringing its inexpensive espresso to London in June. 

The first location is set for Fitzrovia, near University College London.
