The employer
Hi! We’re Brendan & Bec… Where do we start? The two of us have known each other around 20 odd years now. We never imagined 20 years later we’d be together, running our own coffee shop. But here we are! We have both worked in hospitality for all of our working lives, with Bec working front of house, managing hotels & pubs whilst Brendan has gone through the chef ranks in pubs & restaurants. He doesn’t like to brag, but he’s worked in London for the Gordon Ramsay company, cooking at Claridge's Hotel & The York & Albany, and for George Clooney & David Beckham! We both had a stint working together at our local pub & thought why not try it for ourselves? That makes us the perfect team right? Well, at least we hope so…
