Its first 100 customers will also receive a free breakfast meal.

Opening at Weston Links, the restaurant is taking the place of a former Pizza Hut.

It will be Somerset's first Tim Hortons, and the closest branch to Bristol.

The restaurant will create up to 50 new part-time and full-time jobs.

It will offer seating for up to 100 guests as well as a drive-thru service.
