Christmas opening
We will be open on Christmas Eve from 12 - 4pm for ‘Magic Hat’ mince pies, soup, hot drinks and mulled wine. Everything by donation, very relaxed and as far from the madness of the high street as we can muster. Do join us (there will be no Christmas music playing, we promise, just a cosy and relaxed space).
We will be CLOSED from 25 - 30 December and on New Years Day to give our crew a rest.
