Plans have been submitted for the new store to open at the retail hub.
If approved, it would be great news for latte lovers stopping by for their bargain shop.
Lidl are set to open up a huge new shop in THREE vacant units at the retail hub.
Shoppers will be able to get their caffeine fix after stocking up on bargain goods if councillors give the Starbucks the green light.
A new Greggs also opened at the shopping centre last year, giving more snack options for punters.
The super Lidl was finally approved last year after a planning battle with the council.
Construction on the superstore finally started in January.
It comes just weeks after the coffee chain revealed their summer menu for customers, which included a range of Tiramisu-themed drinks.
We previously told how Starbucks announced they were closing one of their stores on a Scottish high street.
Saddened coffee drinkers expressed their disappointment and said it was another nail in the coffin of their town centre.
Starbucks fans 'fuming' over limited-time Snoopy cups as fans blast chain 'why not in the US?'
It was also revealed that a Starbucks is set to open in a trendy Glasgow neighbourhood.
But not everyone was happy with the announcement.

Anas Sarwar urged to whip Scottish Labour MPs against welfare cuts
The Scottish Labour leader faces calls from the SNP to outline whether he will force his MPs to oppose the measures in the UK Government's welfare bill which was published on Wednesday. According to the UK Government's own analysis, changes to Personal Independence Payments and Universal Credit will plunge 250,000 people into poverty – including 50,000 children. Labour have faced accusations they are balancing the nation's books 'on the backs of the poorest in society' but Sarwar has defended the plans. READ MORE: Stephen Flynn in spat with Labour MP on disability cuts He previously told The Scotsman: 'Even with these changes that are being announced, welfare spending is projected to go up across the UK and go up in Scotland. That is not austerity, it is the very opposite of austerity.' But the changes remain controversial, with The Guardian reporting earlier this week that Government officials have admitted privately that framing the cuts in financial terms was a mistake, after initially announcing the cuts would save £5 billion. (Image: Dominic Lipinski/PA Wire) Collette Stevenson, the SNP MSP for East Kilbride, said: 'Labour's planned disability cuts are a shameful imitation of Tory austerity measures that Labour promised to end. It is appalling that Keir Starmer is happy to continue Tory cuts that will plunge hundreds of thousands of vulnerable people into poverty. 'Anas Sarwar must come clean: will he instruct his MPs back these brutal cuts, or will he finally stand up for Scotland's most vulnerable?' READ MORE: EasyJet flight bound for Scottish airport declares mid-air emergency She highlighted past comments from Sarwar, in which the Scottish Labour leader 'promised to stand up to Sir Keir Starmer in Scotland's interest' but added that he had 'failed to do so'. Stevenson added: 'Voters deserve to know where Scottish Labour stands on the latest round of austerity from Westminster. 'The SNP will fight these cuts every step of the way and continue to push for the full powers of independence to build a fairer, more compassionate Scotland.' Scottish Labour were approached for comment.

Larkhall residents asked for views on future of church
Larkhall Plan Partnership (LPP) is seeking residents' opinions on Trinity Parish Church in Union Street, Larkhall, as the Church of Scotland plans to sell the building. The partnership is considering community acquisition of the church to transform it into a community venue. Read more: Scottish charities urged to join 'exciting new platform' to tackle volunteer decline Residents are encouraged to fill out a short survey to express their thoughts on possible uses for the building. The survey is available to be accessed online at Nancy Barr, chair of LPP, said: "We have a special opportunity to turn Trinity Church into a venue that everyone in Larkhall can benefit from. "The church has a special place in our hearts, and so many local people have memories of important events at the church – we want to keep the building as a community asset for everyone to use and benefit from." "We have lost so many community spaces over the past few years, so there is a need for new community venues. "We envision Trinity Church as being a space for arts, culture, and heritage, which we feel is missing in the town, but we want to hear new ideas and explore all possibilities. "Everything Larkhall Plan Partnership does puts our communities' views and needs at the heart of our work. "We want to hear what Larkhall residents think the future of Trinity Parish Church should be."

They are keen to hear from people with business, legal, financial, arts, or culture experience who can contribute to the development of the building for the benefit of the town. Residents are encouraged to share their views and express interest in joining the venture through the survey on the Larkhall Plan Partnership's website.
