The First 92 Degrees in Sainsbury's has just opened its doors

In the previous 92 Degrees article, we let you know that 92 Degrees was heading into Sainsbury's stores across the UK. Well, the big day just arrived - the first coffee shop opened its doors in Neston on 16th September 2026, serving up Damn Fine Coffee™ to Sainsbury's shoppers for the very first time.

Not your average supermarket coffee stop

Supermarket coffee shops tend to be functional and convenient, but haven’t evolved or changed much in recent years – unlike the new wave of brands like 92 Degrees. These days, they tend to blend into the background. Useful, but rarely something you'd go out of your way for. This one is different. It brings the same eye-catching brand, the same carefully roasted coffee, and the same attention to detail you'd find in any 92 Degrees shop, just built into a smaller space.

This isn't a watered-down version of the brand. It's the real thing, and it shows the moment you walk up to the counter. A short video was posted on the 92 Degrees Instagram page, on 15-Sep-26, which gives you a look at it all coming together; it’s well worth a watch.

This is only the beginning

Neston is just the first of many. More locations are planned before the end of the year, and this trial with Sainsbury's opens up a whole range of exciting, new opportunities. The Midlands franchisees now have access to potentially dozens of new sites within Sainsbury's stores all across their region.

What does that mean for you?

If you're considering a single site of your own, it's another example of how the 92 Degrees concept can work in a variety of different environments.

If you're thinking bigger, as a multi-unit investor building a portfolio, this is especially interesting news. While it is still early days for the new partnership with Sainsbury’s, this kind of high-level working relationship could potentially open the door to a whole new category of site for you, too, alongside the more traditional locations you might already have in mind.
