🩵 TOP SHOP — THE SAME HEART, A NEW CHAPTER! 🩵
Now, when I said that Top Shop that we all know and love will still be what it has always been, I meant every single word!
Some of you may remember me from the short time I worked here before the previous owner took over. I actually left Top Shop to go and be part of Café Forever23, and what a journey that turned out to be! 🩵
During my time there, I met some absolutely incredible people, and the café became a place I truly loved being part of. Some of the team I worked alongside absolutely smashed every aspect of what a community café should be, and I will always be grateful for those experiences and the people who came into my life along the way.
As I said in my announcement, yes, some things will change, but some things might just stay exactly as they are! 😉🤫
My vision is to create a community hub that everyone can use and feel part of — somewhere you can enjoy good food, good company, love, laughter and that good old-fashioned community spirit we all know and love.
A place where people can pop in for a cuppa, have a chat, catch up with familiar faces and feel welcome. Because for me, a café has always been about so much more than just food. It’s about the people, the friendships and the memories we create along the way. 🩵
I honestly cannot wait to get started, put my own little stamp on things and see what we can build together!
I’ll shortly be announcing what’s happening this Saturday for our grand reopening, before we get back to business as usual on Monday!
Thank you to everyone who has already shown us so much love and support. It genuinely means the world, and I cannot wait to welcome you all through the doors.
Top Shop is entering a new chapter, but its heart will always remain the same. 🩵
Much love,
Lorisa or Lou as many of you know me as 🩵
Be humble. Be kind. Always.
