Always a great place for a coffee & a chat. Especially during the pandemic when VIctoria Park & the cafe was a huge haven for our groups to meet. TY – at Frome, England
A very heartfelt thank you and goodbye to the wonderful Lotte for her time in the cafe at Victoria Park - you can still find her and her delicious offerings at Bistro Lotte at the top of Catherine Street.
Watch this space for something new coming in the spring! ☕ 🍰
