What an incredible turnout we had at the café today! A huge thank you to everyone who stopped by to enjoy our Mother’s Day Devonshire Tea — it was so lovely to see so many familiar and friendly faces.

I’m so proud of our weekend team who absolutely smashed it today, and a special thank you as well to their families for coming in to share a coffee and yummy scones with us and support the team. It made the day even more special.

We hope everyone had a beautiful weekend filled with love and good company, and we can’t wait to welcome you all back again soon.

Much love ❤️

💜 Download the FREE PunchPass app from the App Store or Google Play using the QR code in this post or scanning at the counter in cafe.
💜 It works on both iPhone and Android

The app is FREE and very simple to use once downloaded, it will make the whole process quicker and easier when grabbing your coffee.

The team looks forward to seeing you soon for your next coffee fix! ☕💜

THANK YOU — from the bottom of our hearts

On December 8th, 2022, we welcomed our very first customer into the café… and three years later, wow — what an incredible journey it has been. Thank you to everyone who dropped by today to celebrate with us, to share a meal, or simply to offer a heartfelt “happy 3rd birthday” to the team.

It is truly an honour to run this business and share this space with such a wonderful community. To all the residents, families, facility staff and visitors who support us day after day — thank you. We love what we do, and we cherish your support, your smiles, and the friendships we’ve built along the way.

To my amazing team — you are the heart of it all. You work hard, you show up, and you bring to life the values we stand by: creating a welcoming space for everyone, bringing purpose to what we do, and building warmth and connection within our community.

Happy 3rd Birthday, Colourful Apron. Here’s to many more years of creating, eating, and smiling together.

Much love,
Ang xx
