The Nata Brûlée Cloud was created in memory of someone very special to us 🤍
Our inspiration came from a much-loved regular who visited our café daily for his favourite cappuccino and pastel de nata. Over time, he became part of our coffee shop family, and his warmth and kindness left a lasting mark on all of us.
The weekend would have been his birthday, so we wanted to honour the simple ritual he loved most: good coffee, good conversation, and a pastel de nata shared in good company.
More than just a signature drink, the Nata Brûlée Cloud is a tribute to comfort, community, and the people who make cafés feel like home ☁️
We’re so happy you got to experience it 🙌🏽
Do you want to see this at our cafe? 👀

Running with heart, purpose, and love 💚
Our amazing customer Jonny is taking on the Shakespeare Marathon this 26th April alongside Hannah, Aidan, and Tom — all in support of Macmillan Cancer Support.
This run is deeply personal. They’re doing it for Hannah and Jonny’s dad, Gary, and now running in his memory after his recent passing. A powerful reminder of why charities like Macmillan are so vital — providing care, comfort, and support when it’s needed most.
We’re so proud of you all and will be cheering you on every step of the way 🙌
If you can, please show some love and donate — every pound truly makes a difference.
Drop a 💚 in the comments to send your support and wish them luck… they’ve got this!
