Pop icon Sabrina Carpenter made a surprise appearance on June at cult London coffee brand, Blank Street, to serve free coffees to Espresso fans…isn't that sweet?
Carpenter is a self-confessed fan of Blank Street which has taken London by storm since opening its first store in the UK just two years ago.
Earlier in the day, Carpenter’s impromptu appearance was leaked via the official fan account @teamsabrina where a photo was posted of the Charlotte Street store in Fitzrovia, London - one of 30 across the capital.
The post quickly gained traction and Blank Street saw hundreds of customers through the doors during Carpenter’s barista shift.
Fans soon took to social media to share their snaps of Sabrina serving them iced coffees.
