Home Educators Session This Morning

Whether you're new to home education or one of our regulars, you're always welcome at the hub.

Whether you want to build Lego, do a bit of colouring, or just take time to mix with others on a similar journey we're here for you from 10am until 3pm today.

The last of our current selection of cakes available today, with some new choices as well as favourites being delivered for the weekend.

We'll have our regular selection of toasted sandwiches, crumpets, bagels and other toasted deliciousness available too. In our small kitchen area we have available, we just keep it simple, with good quality ingredients leaving you fulfilled and ready for the rest of your day.

Second week of our 5 week Cothu course tonight as well.

Enjoy the sunshine whilst it lasts, and whatever you do, make sure it's with good coffee.

We’re open today until 3pm for you to drop in and take time for you, however I have a confession.

*** CONFESSION TIME ***

We waste coffee

Why? It doesn’t matter what you do to run the equipment through and warm up the machine, or purge the coffee already sitting in the grinder, that first coffee through the machine just isn’t going to be quite right, so, we just let it run through.

Whilst the first coffee through the machine might be ok for some outlets it isn’t here. It is just part of what makes us different and we’re proud to be that way

We also check our grind every morning to make sure we’re getting just the right extraction for that great coffee taste every time, not too bitter, not too sour. Because the ambient temperature on the day also makes a difference.

So come in and taste the difference and don’t settle for less because let’s face it, there’s not that much difference in how much you pay for bean to cup coffee wherever you go is there?

isn’t it time you tried somewhere that goes further every time to make sure you have a great flavour every time?

*** we are happy to give away our used coffee grounds if you want to use it for a fertiliser for your garden or allotment - great for nitrogen and keeps the slugs and snails at bay, just drop in if you’d like a large bag **

This is how we're looking for the coming week. We realise we've been a bit all over the place over the summer holidays, but we're hopefully settling down more fixed days for general opening of the walk in/cafe side of the business as from this week.

Booking for Brick Builders sessions are available via the link at the top of the page, and are set to repeat, so you should be able to book in advance easier now.

You don't need a booking if you're just popping in for drink/snacks/something to eat.

Friday sees the monthly business networking walk and talk, meeting at 9am at the hub in conjunction with Wilde_Bakes.

We're settling into an 11-4 Sunday timeslot as we head into the cooler months (this includes Sunday Market Days). You're welcome to pop in for a look around and/or a brew or rest if you're down at the market and need a seat.

Remember we are also available for hire for meetings/gatherings/parties - see our pinned post at the top of the page for more information.

How’s the weekend going for everyone? First full week back at school for most and it’s quite normal to not know how you really feel after it, this applies whether you’re a student or a parent.

The season is changing, weather to be honest is miserable, and it seems to have dampened many peoples mood.

At the hub, we’re all about inclusion, and we get that sometimes you just need some time and space for yourself.

This can be especially hard if you’re neurodivergent when you feel emotions and changes more deeply than a lot of people would consider ‘normal’ (what really is normal anyway?), and that’s ok, we get it.

If you need a quiet corner where you can just regroup, or to find your centre again, whether you’re local, a tourist, or just passing through we try to provide a relaxed vibe where you can do just that.

Are we just for neurodivergent people?

No, we are for everyone, but we get how much more intense life can feel when you are neurodivergent. how sensory sensitivities and other factors can lead to you feeling overwhelmed, and how that can manifest into real anxiety and physical pain, even if others don’t see or understand it.

We see you, and we’re here for you.

It’s probably going to be a wet weather day tomorrow, so what are you going to do?

We’re open tomorrow at a slightly later time of 11am, but we’re also open later until 4pm as well.

Simple, tasty food, drinks and snacks made with care. Vegan options for drinks, cakes and snacks, and a range of gluten free pre-packed deliciously Ella’s snacks. Our toasted sandwiches can also be made vegan friendly with violife cheese.

Whatever you’re doing this weekend remember to try and find some time for yourself, self care isn’t selfish.

Although we’re not regularly open on a Thursday, we are today! So if you’re about why not pop in and treat yourself to some time for you.

If you’re home schooling why not pop in for a treat and build a Lego set whilst you’re here? Or some free mindful colouring whilst you enjoy a great drink, cake, snack or toasted treat?

Whatever you’re doing on this grey day, make sure you take some time for yourself. We’re here if we can be that place for you to do that.

A little window display change, and I’ve even blipped the heating on briefly this morning to take the chill off. PSL day today 🎃 🍁?

Filter coffee is brewed, the espresso grind adjusted as it’s a little colder today (yes it makes a difference!) and the displays restocked.

Preparing for first week of out cothu parent education course tonight as well.

Busy day ahead (hopefully!). Come and spend some time with us today. Home ed session from 10-12 today.

Meeting/Event/Party Hire The Mindful Hub

Need or would like somewhere to hold your event?

Business meetings, networking, family get together, social gatherings, community groups, school or nursery parties, SEN gatherings, biker, cyclist, and walker meeting up point and a lot more?

We have options for you here at the hub.

Want a little more from your get together?

We're happy to collaborate with Wilde_Bakes, and The Yellow Bird Café to bring some WOW! to your occasion if you're looking for something beyond what we offer at here too. Just let us know what you need.

We're cosy in the autumn/winter, and just the right temperature in the summer. We have a soft relaxed environment designed with those that have sensory sensitivies in mind, and clean modern facilities, but we have bright overhead lights too - if you really want them! We have a projector and screen available for use if you need it.

Were opposite Haltwhistle train station, and next to the AD122/122/681 bus stop, and the 685 stops nearby. Plenty of free car parking nearby too.

Step-free easy access, and PPL/PRS licenced for recorded music.

You can have the option of pre-prepared filter coffee/hot water for tea in keep warm airpots, or you can have your own personal barista making your drinks for you - can your meeting space offer that?

We're happy to chat to see if we can help you host your next event, give us a call or drop us a message to get the ball rolling.

Tonight!

Morning folks - just a reminder that Mens Brick and Banter is on this evening The Mindful Hub (yes I know it's not the first Tuesday of the month!).

Pop along for a chat and.or chill, build some lego (or not). Entirely up to you.

Take some time out of your week for you, enjoy a drink, read a book, do some mindful colouring, or anything else within reason that helps you to unwind. No pressure to chat if you don't want to. Just come and be you.
