While the council is yet to make a decision on the proposal, one resident raised concerns about the cafe's close proximity to the retirement housing block at Loch Court arguing that the extra noise from the venue might disturb elderly tenants.
Another nearby resident said that while it would be "great" to see the new business come to the area, they were concerned about Jopps Lane, located to the back of the store, becoming overrun with traffic.
