The application, which was submitted on October 28, was approved earlier this month and so the Doncaster Road chain will become the second Starbucks in Barnsley - after the store on the Dearne Valley Parkway.
The new store is set to bring a total of 45 jobs - 17 full-time and 28 part-time - to the borough.
As well as the new Starbucks, the application included the erection of a separate detached building - on the same site - which will be used as a hot food takeaway delivery hub for pizza giants Domino’s.
