BLEND Coffee Lounge, previously based at Causeyside Street, first opened in 2015. It closed in early 2023 due to financial challenges.
However, yesterday, bosses revealed their plans to return to Paisley. It is believed the new location will be at the newly refurbished Paisley Arts Centre.

The statement read: "So…we have some news! Having to leave Paisley was a tough choice last year, but we couldn’t stay away for too long!
"We LOVE Paisley and creating a space for community. Where worlds collide. Where people find belonging. Where friends reunite. Strangers connect. Future partners connect for the first time.
"So, we are super excited to be coming back to create this space, in partnership with OneRen, and bring back the best coffee in town.
"We will continue our partnership with other local businesses, The Gatehouse Coffee Roasters and Paisley Drinks Co., as well as a new collaboration with the award-winning Two Towns Down Brewing!
"We can’t wait to welcome you. To see our old friends. Meet new ones. And, together, cultivate a space that everyone feels welcomed, seen, heard and valued.
"We are just finalising a few details and will be with you real soon. Keep your eyes on our socials for updates and spread the word."
