✨ 6 MONTHS OF BEAN & BANTER ✨

6 months ago, I turned the key and opened the doors to something I’d dreamed about… and WOW, what a 6 months it’s been! 🥹☕️

From the nerves of opening day, learning the ropes, busy Saturdays, new faces, new friendships, a few stressful moments 😂 and SO many coffees, breakfasts and cakes…

Bean & Banter has become so much more than just a cafe. It’s become a little part of the community, and I honestly couldn’t be more grateful. 🤍

To every single customer who has walked through our doors, supported us, recommended us, left a review, shared a post, brought their friends or simply popped in for a coffee THANK YOU. 🫶🏼

And to my amazing team, thank you for everything you do to keep Bean & Banter going. I couldn’t do it without you! 🤍

6 months down… and we’re only just getting started. 🥂✨

Here’s to everything still to come! 🤎

A little night off from the coffee machines ☕️➡️

We swapped the café for an escape room and a meal last night, and honestly, the escape room had absolutely no idea what was coming 🤣

There was shouting, confusion, absolutely no coordination and at least a few moments of “WHAT ARE YOU DOING?!” 😂

But… WE ESCAPED! 🔐

A very well deserved night off with the team🤎🫶

A big Happy Birthday to our very own Holly the girl behind the beans, the banter and probably the majority of the chaos. 😜

22 years young today 🥳

A big part of her last year has of course involved …. Bean & Banter, bossing us all about 😉, learning & juggling a thousand things and proving that sometimes the best things in life really do start with a good idea… and a LOT of caffeine.

Happy 22nd Holly! 🥂🎈

Here’s to another year of big dreams, strong coffee, good people and plenty of banter. ☕️🩷

22 looks pretty brewtiful on you! 😜☕️

Love from your Bean & Banter crew 🫘🩷

☕️🪂 FROM BEAN & BANTER… TO FEAR & FREEFALL! 🪂☕️

Most days on here we’re talking coffee, cake, breakfasts and everything happening at Bean & Banter.

Today, we’re asking you for something a little different. ❤️

Many of you will have met Michelle in the cafe my mum, occasional extra pair of hands, chief supporter… and a woman who is quite literally PETRIFIED of heights. 😳

So naturally, what has she agreed to do?

JUMP OUT OF AN AEROPLANE. 🪂

Yes. Really.

And this one is very close to the Bean & Banter heart.
I lost my dad, Gareth, to cancer. During those incredibly difficult final weeks, Gareth received hospice care at home put together in a hurry … With the help of others me, Michelle and their family navigated a time they could never have imagined facing.
They now fully appreciate the value, the difference the services of a Hospice can make to families facing a turning point in life, to hold onto dignity, find peace.

It’s one of those services you hope your family will never need.

But when you do need it, you realise just how precious it is. ❤️

So Michelle … fuelled by a latte courage and presumably several strong coffees ☕️😳 is joining three other equally brave (or equally bonkers!) people for a tandem skydive in aid of Nightingale House Hospice.

They are jumping in memory of three very special people:

❤️ Gareth
❤️ Jason
❤️ Sarah

And this is where our wonderful Bean & Banter community comes in…

EVERY BEAN COUNTS. ☕️❤️

Could you donate the price of a coffee?

£3, £5, £10… whatever you can manage.

Because lots of little donations can become something pretty incredible helping Nightingale House continue to provide care, dignity and support to another family when their world suddenly changes.

And if you can’t donate, please share, share, share. That costs absolutely nothing and could make an enormous difference.

🪂 Four people.
❤️ Three very special people.
☕️ One very frightened café mum.
💛 And one incredibly worthwhile cause.

We are jumping for Gareth, Jason & Sarah.

And Michelle is going to need considerably more than a double espresso to get her through this one. 😳😂

Thank you from Holly, Michelle and all of us at Bean & Banter. ❤️☕️

Come on folks… espresso your support! ☕️🪂
