We are so excited to share this news. We know Bob and the Kitchen team will do awesome things in Rye. Come on in over the coming weeks and give them a warm welcome. And thanks to everyone that supported Sea Store 2.0!

Ok, so there's this thing that's happening, and I think it might be rather splendid...

We'll be setting up shop very soon at 43 Wondaree Street in Rye, just in time for the silly season, and we're hoping for a good number of years afterwards too.

What was the site of The Peninsula Pantry for a good chunk of time, has been incredibly redesigned and reimagined by Trent and Leanna when they relocated their previous café, Sea Store, earlier this year.
They will be staying on as our wonderful landlords, and our latest venture, The Rye Kitchen, will be taking their space in the shop.

We're hoping to be open later into next week. We'll just need the council to pop their heads into the kitchen and sign us off before we can trade, and once that's been ticked off, the front doors (and the doors to the new courtyard area) will be opened with warm smiles and our legendary hospitality behind them...

Obviously, there's a fair bit to bite off, and we're definitely not going to take more than we can swallow heading into Summer on the Peninsula. We'll initially be operating Wednesday to Sunday, with a similar offering to Sea Store, now - fresh-made sandwiches, toasties, salads, etc, plus award-winning Hidden kitchen pies, pasties and sausage rolls. Plus our homemade slices, cakes, biscuits, and, of course, the excellent coffee you all know and love from the other three venues, with Godfather blend.

Things will develop as and when we can add them over time, without stretching things before we find our feet - think cooked breakfasts, fabulous lunches, take-home meals, and many more ideas that are too long to list here, all being thrown in along the way as we get things under control and staffed correctly...

We will be making a few changes to our socials, consolidating all four venues into one account, as the thought of opening and managing a fourth Instagram and a fourth Facebook account made my eyes twitch slightly. Details on that are to follow, but I wanted to pre-empt anyone trying to find the new joint on the socials before I get around to merging and posting about it on the others....

Wish us luck,

Bob and the teams
