A new coffee/bubble tea shop is being planned for 411 Cameron Street in Old Town, according to a special use permit (SUP) filed with the city.

The location was previously home to antique store Time Juggler.

The owners of the 595-square-foot shop are listed as My Huynh and Randal Phillips.

The SUP says that the business would be open seven days a week, from 6 a.m. to 9 p.m. and serve coffee, non-alcoholic drinks and gelato.

Calls to the owners were not returned.
