Islandrive opened its first UK drive-thru espresso bar at The Junction’s Thurrock Shopping Park in November 2007. Located in a 402 sq ft state-of-the-art pod, specially designed and built for the new outlet.

Specifically offering coffees, teas, real fruit smoothies, sandwiches and pastries in an innovative and car-friendly packaging. Islandrive is aiming to meet the needs of customers based out-of-town and on-the-move.

Existing retailers at The Junction’s Thurrock Shopping Park include Comet, Asda Living, Marks & Spencer, TK Maxx, JJB Sports, Matalan, MFI and Carpetright.

We have been working alongside our retailers to ensure that their new store openings went with a bang! Tesco Home Plus at Bristol and M&S Outlet at Thurrock have both opened recently and hopefully achieved greater public awareness with on site entertainment and publicity. Both stores have reported good trading so if you’re in the area, pop in.
