Ginger Plum Café in Addingham has opened its doors today with a team behind the counter, Sophie and Matt.
The pair have taken over from Gill and John and posted on the café's Facebook this morning saying how they are looking forward to new beginnings at Ginger Plum:
"Hello! We’re Sophie and Matt — the new team behind Ginger Plum Café — and this morning we’re opening the doors for our very first day.
"Over the past weeks we’ve been getting to know the space, meeting neighbours, and understanding what makes Ginger Plum so special to the village. What we’ve heard again and again is how much this little café has meant to people: a familiar place to sit, chat, pause, and feel part of the community. That’s exactly what we hope to continue.
"A bit about us: we’re two coffee‑fuelled adventurists who love simple, good food, great coffee, and creating a space that feels comfortable and unhurried — with cracking music and a warm atmosphere at the heart of it. You might even hear the story of how our Californian ended up in God’s Own County.
"We’re really looking forward to becoming part of everyday village life and discovering all the places, people, and moments that make Addingham so special.
"The kettle’s on, the bakes are fresh, and we’re here ready to welcome you — whether you’re stopping by on your morning walk, meeting a friend, or just curious to say hello."
Ginger Plum Café is located on Main Street in Addingham and is open Tuesday to Thursday 9am until 3pm.
