Week beginning April 11th -- New neighbours

Welcome back to lovely lovely weather, what an amazing last few days it has been. But also, after 3 months building work and who knows how much planning, we are now able to welcome our new neighbours across the road, the Riding House Cafe.

This looks to be a most amazing venue, a real addition to the community that is Titchfield Village. The guys, Adam and Clive, are brilliant and they bring years of hospitality experience with them. Already they own a popular Bermondsey pub, the Garrison, as well as Village East fine dining restaurant and I would say that this will be their flagship site.

It is absolutly fantastic for me to see industry professionals who are passionate about food, service, wine, decor, design and yes even coffee moving into our neighbourhood. They have bought a la Marzocco FB 80 machine and will be doing cafetiere coffee in their fine dining area, with all beans and tech support will be supplied by Caravan Roastery.

I hope those of you in the area will support them to and help to really bring Titchfield Village into prominence in London and the UK.

Now of course we also have to improve our standards. I look forward to it.
