It is with a broken heart that we tell you that we will not be reopening Poppyseed.
After losing Anne, the link is forever broken and the glue that constantly kept us together is gone.
As our logo said, 'more than just coffee....' that is what it was, thanks to the kindness and friendships that were built within Poppyseed.
Hard to imagine that we won't be passing through these doors again but it was becoming increasingly harder each day to open and not see Anne there.
We have been on auto pilot since Anne left us but the last few weeks the realisation has settled in and we have found ourselves physically, mentally and emotionally exhausted. We pushed grieving Anne aside to try and keep the business going but we have found it has caught up with us.
Our staff, some not long with us, others we have watched grow up to the most amazing men and women, we are so proud of you. It has been a privilege to work alongside you all.
Our community and customers, whose unwavering support had brought us through some of the most difficult times. We cannot thank you enough for going above and beyond when we needed you most. You were an extended part of our Poppyseed family.
We will miss you all but we will forever keep the memories close to our hearts.
It has been a pleasure serving you.
Team Poppy
