🍂 Cozy winter vibes are officially in the works! 🍂

We spent the summer months making a few updates to our garden to make it more enjoyable. Now that the days are getting shorter and cooler, we're focusing on the inside of the bistro to make you more comfortable during the winter months.

✨ FIRST STEP... recovering and re-padding some of our bistro chairs!! ✨

This will take a week or two as our lovely friend Victoria does them 2 at a time... but here's a first peek at some of our new coverings. 😍

👉 Come in and try them out! 👈

MILESTONE NEWS! 🚀✨

We have a bit of news: thanks to you choosing us for your coffee dates, family brunches, and weekend treats, Down the Road is officially becoming VAT registered on 1st October!

This milestone means we now have to account for VAT, so our prices will be adjusting slightly next month. Please don't worry - this won't be a blanket 20% increase, and some of your favourites won't be going up at all!

We are so grateful for our brilliant Navenby community and everyone who supports our independent business. Our commitment to top-notch, fresh food and a warm village welcome hasn't changed a bit.

Pop in and see us soon! 🥞☕✨

One week to go until September Grooves! 🌴🎵

We are absolutely delighted to welcome the fantastic Lewis Canner back for his final performance with us this year. The evenings are getting a bit cooler now, so we will be moving the party inside the cosy warmth of the bistro rather than the garden (unless we get a last minute heat wave).

If you caught his brilliant sets back in February or July, you already know his incredible acoustic-pop style and fantastic vocals create the absolute perfect, laid-back atmosphere.

Spaces are limited and we only have a few left. Come along for great live music and Matt's delicious Bao Buns for dinner!

Head over to our event page to RSVP and secure your table booking:

🎓 Exciting News (and a little help needed!) ☕️

We have some bittersweet news to share! Our lovely Sam is heading off to university part-time to start an exciting new chapter. We are incredibly proud and can't wait to see Sam smash it! 🥳

Because of the new uni schedule, Sam won’t be available to work on Mondays anymore. 😭

This means we are looking for someone local to step in and help us out 1 day a week (Mondays), with the occasional second day when things get busy.

Since it’s just for one or two days, we really need someone who already has Front of House experience and can hit the ground running with our lovely customers. 🏃‍♀️

If you are looking for a few local hours, love a bustling cafe environment, and want to join our small team, we’d love to hear from you!

📩 Interested? Send us a DM or an email with your info, experience and any questions.

Please join us in wishing Sam the absolute best of luck! 🥂🎉
