Our story

We opened in a 1920s corner shop in 2019 with one oven and a coffee machine. The oven is bigger now. The coffee machine is the same one.

I wanted the café I grew up with, where you know the people behind the counter and the bread is still warm at seven. We bake everything here, every morning.
