A Little Comfort for January ❄️💛

January’s second week can feel a little quieter - the festive rush has faded, the days are still short, and winter asks us to slow down ❄️✨ This is the perfect time to lean into small comforts that make a big difference 🤍 Warm your hands around a cup of delicious, hot Square Mile coffee ☕🔥, escape the cold, and enjoy the simple joy of winter routines done well. Think cosy brunches 🥐🍳, familiar flavours, and a reason to pause 🪑💭 Oh - and we’ve got a bun in the oven, but not the kind you’re thinking about 😉🥮 Come in, get comfortable, and let January be gentle 🌨️💛

Warm Up & Dunk In! 🥣🥖🔥

When the temperature drops below zero ❄️🥶, the best way to warm up is with our butternut squash & sweet potato soup 🥣✨! Creamy, naturally sweet, and gently spiced, it’s pure winter comfort 😋💛. Served with two slices of toasted seven-seeded bread 🍞🌾, perfect for dunking, sharing, and chatting with friends 🫶👯‍♀️. Every spoonful warms you from the inside out 🔥☕. Gather your crew, cozy up, and make the most of these chilly days together 🥰❄️. Nothing beats soup, bread, and laughter on a freezing winter day! 🥣🥖💛

Morning Happiness in a Bun! 🍔☀️

Rise and shine ☀️🥳 - our tried & true breakfast burger is here to make your morning awesome! 🍔💛 Juicy Cumberland sausage 🌭, crispy bacon 🥓, and a perfectly herb-baked egg 🌿🥚 all snuggled in a soft, toasted brioche bun 🍞✨. Add a dollop of truffle mayo 🍄😍 and every bite is pure happiness! 😋🔥 Perfect for brunch with friends 🫶, a weekend treat, or just because mornings deserve a little indulgence. Hearty, gooey, and totally crave-worthy - this is the breakfast burger everyone’s talking about! 🥳🍔🥓
