We've had 4 wonderful years in Hythe, but it was 25 years ago that my brother Tom and I opened our doors in London. Hythe has been an incredible part of our journey, learning to roast coffee, getting our frozen soups offer launched, upgrading our soups to tick more nutritional boxes, and not forgetting our sweet ice-cream project. Learning how to run a community cafe, trading on just two days a week ... it's been a wonderful puzzle to solve, immensely rewarding, and more than I could ever have imagined. We felt fully embedded and surrounded by a thousand friends in our little oasis at The Malthouse.

We may be retiring the cafe, but not Nincomsoup. My time will be spent on a Nincomsoup cookbook, and the coffee roasting side of Nincomsoup (available online, link in bio). Some of our DNA lives on at The Malthouse in the form of Loom Cafe , friends (including Alex who has been working with us for the last couple of years) are taking over the space, and I'll be roasting coffee for Loom.

Thank you for all your support. Last year your visits helped us raise over £500 for the Walk Wheel Cycle Trust.

Long live liquid sustenance.
