Café 16:15

30/09/2026

Morning all, unfortunately we still wont be able to open anytime soon, but we will need your help to stay open. Closed doors wont pay the bills, and being a fully voluntary charity and community cafe, we have little or no other funding than ourselves. So please, if you are able, can you share this link to our Just Giving, and maybe help us through this next month.

Thank you

Morning all, so it would seem things are a little more serious health wise than I thought they were, and I could be laid up, taking it easy, in the comfort of this hospital bed for the next week. Which unfortunately means I wont be opening the cafe for a little while.

Hi all, just a little advance notice that I may not be open tomorrow as planned, am currently holed up at Northampton General Hospital, with some breathing issues and a potential blood clot in my heart. But do watch this space, as I have a habit of bouncing back 😁

Just a reminder that we will not be open for breakfast today, as am away moving my son into university.

Back for Monday.

25/09/2026

As its my son's last day before leaving home for university, I have decided to spend that day at home. Please remember, we are not open this weekend for breakfast, for the same reason, but will be back on Monday.

Have a great weekend.

Gluten/dairy free garlic and cheese loaf, just one of the items from our free-from range baked here at Café 16:15.
From mains to quiche, salads to cakes, we aim to ensure that those with food intolerances can enjoy more than just a jacket spud 🥔.

We have said goodbye to many of those for whom the streets were home, and I have had the privilege of officiating funerals and memorials. But George was without a doubt, the most popular street sleeper I have ever known, and being able to arrange his final farewell was indeed a privilege.

Morning all, just a little plug for our upcoming October promotion.

This was us this morning, trundling around Rushden for an hour or so, looking for anyone that might need a hot drink, a bap, or just a chat. Its what Project 16:15 has been doing for almost 10th years across the county. Fully voluntary and in all weathers.
Café is open this morning for breakfast, a meal you may struggle to complete, but not next week as it's take the son to university weekend.
So if your joining the queue at Osbournes toy shop this morning, and need a breakfast that will set you up for the day, why not pop along and see us @ Café 16:15

Morning all, we will be open today, its also Spring - Social Prescribing in Wellingborough & East Northants weekly visit, so looking forward to that.
The Mac n Cheese 🧀 is cooking (gluten free) the jerk chicken 🐔 is seasoning, our hasselback jacket potatoes 🥔 are in the oven and our Jollof Rice 🍚 has just reached perfection 👌
We also have our usual selection of cakes/pastries and sausage rolls 😋. Soup, pasta pots, salads and sandwiches 🥪.
A new favourite to our menu is our BBQ Jerk Chicken 🐔 Mac 'n' Cheese 🧀 and our Jerk Chicken 🐔 salad, both well worth a try.

So if your day takes you to the High Street, why not take a little detour onto Hamblin Court, and come see what our little community café is all about.
