We are a non-profit organisation, meaning that when you buy a coffee, lunch or cake from us, we reinvest any profit back into the development of our staff and our programme of community events. We employ local people, and are proud to support the local economy through partnerships with local food producers and suppliers. Our menu is lovingly created and freshly prepared by our chef Marcus, a man of many talents; he is also a keen artist and a music producer. Not just a cafe, we are also an arts venue; a meeting and gathering place with a programme of regular activities, workshops and events which are free to attend and open to all. From open mic nights, music gigs and signwriting squads to climate action groups and film screenings, our diverse programme offers you a chance to get involved, whatever your interests.
