☀️ Due to the lovely weather — and the café being much hotter than usual today — we’ll be closing a little earlier so our hardworking team can enjoy some fresh air and sunshine too.
The team have been working incredibly hard recently, especially in the heat, so we’d like to give them a well-earned early finish 🌼
Thanks so much for your understanding and continued support 💛

✨🎉 Today Our Café Turns 8! 🎉✨
What a rollercoaster these last 8 years have been. From the highs to the lows, the busy days, the stressful days, and the unforgettable memories made along the way — we are so grateful to still be here doing what we love. ❤️
Over the years we’ve faced many challenges, especially through Covid, which tested so many small businesses like ours. But with the support of our amazing customers, friends and family, we kept going.
The hardest challenge of all has been losing our mum, now over 7 months ago. 💔 She played such a huge part in all of our lives, both inside and outside the café. She was at the heart of everything we did, and not a day goes by that we don’t think of her.
We know she’s watching down on us every single day, and she would have absolutely loved seeing the café’s new look after the renovations. We hope we’re making her proud every day. ❤️
To celebrate our 8th birthday, we’ve made a special birthday cake which will be available to buy in the café today by the slice 🎂☕ so call in and celebrate with us!
Thank you all for the love and support over the years — we truly couldn’t have done it without you. Here’s to many more memories together. 🥂✨
