🎉 W E A R E S I X 🎉

Today we’re celebrating 6 incredible years and what a journey it’s been!

We opened our doors on the 7th of August 2020 during one of the most uncertain times. It wasn’t the easiest start, but thanks to the support of our amazing community, we’ve grown from those early days into the busy, vibrant cafe we’re proud to call home today.

To our wonderful regulars and customers - thank you for choosing us, recommending us, and making us part of your daily routines. Your support has meant everything 💕

A huge thank you to our fantastic suppliers for helping us deliver the quality we strive for every day.

And finally, to our incredible team: Lauren, Conor, Anna, Judith & Laura. Your hard work, care, and commitment are what make this café such a special place, and we couldn’t do it without you!

Here’s to six amazing years and to many more coffees, conversations, and memories together ❤️
