Fen’s Market opens specialty coffee shop in Woodstock
For years, Starbucks lovers in the Woodstock region had to drive an hour to Fredericton to purchase their Grande Frappuccino. Now, the worldwide trendy coffee shop has a location in Woodstock, allowing Carleton County folks to enjoy their favourite drink whenever they want.
Dwight Fraser is a co-owner of Fen’s Market. He said he and his team recognized how popular Starbucks was among the people of Woodstock and decided it was time to bring the magic closer.
“It’s a worldwide iconic brand, and we felt that Woodstock finally needed one,” said Fraser.
Fen’s Market’s Starbucks location meant a six-week construction period. Fraser says the building process went “very smoothly,” and they were lucky to keep the convenience store open daily during construction. The coffee shop officially opened its doors to customers on July 15.

Since the Woodstock Starbucks opened, employees have been working hard, seeing a large influx of customers daily.
A few days after their soft opening, Fraser and his co-owners, Scott and Laura Fraser, welcomed Starbucks executives Kara Meldrum and Mark Mussio to their Gallop Street shop so the corporation could see the success of their newest location.
