Opening from Friday, November 17, it follows the success of similar cafes in Primarks in Birmingham and Edinburgh.

With thousands of themed shakes and waffles sold in just two weeks, and 'queues stretching all the way to Whoville', the cafes have proved a hit with customers, many of whom already head in store to get their hands on The Grinch range of more than 100 items including matching family pyjamas, jumpers, accessories and homewares.

The cafe will be open until December 29 and on one of the dates - November 22 - The Grinch himself will make an appearance spreading all his anti-Christmas joy.
