We are a husband and wife team (Sarah & Wayne) running a small batch speciality coffee roastery in Farnham Common, Buckinghamshire.

By Susanna Fraser from Boom Event Planners VE Day Celebrations across the country will no doubt be very different to what was anticipated earlier this year, I for one should have been working – decorating a marquee for a client’s big birthday party on Saturday but sadly all that has changed. However, we must put […]

I saw a meme this week that showed a lockdown budget where all items in the budget were £0, but food was about £2k a month. It’s a pretty fair assessment of lockdown life, isn’t it? Suddenly our main preoccupation is getting food and what to have for our next meal…and actually constantly feeling […]

I’ve been asked a few times about local delivery services for food to support those in self-isolation, so here is a quickly put together list, which I hope helps those in need. I’ve tried to capture as many as possible, but if we’ve forgotten your business, please let us know as we will keep the […]

How lucky are we to have been invited for a sneak peak of the lovely new Rosanna’s bar and restaurant in Berkhamsted? It’s another venue to open in Berkhamsted that brings Hertfordshire up a notch with exquisite decor and oh so yummy food. Alessia and Rosanna (sisters no less) have poured their heart and soul […]

When I think of Crockers and the places they’ve gone and are yet to go, it makes me realise just how long we’ve been blogging! Although it was still only just over a year ago they were out at Potten End in their first and somewhat petite chef’s table venue. Driving through Potten End it […]

Earlier this year we were blown away by the arrival of the Copper House to the Berkhamsted High Street. Taking over the beautiful old listed building previously occupied by Carluccio’s, the champagne, cocktail & fine dining bar were a much longed for addition to the cosmopolitan community of Berko. From the moment we saw the […]

It’s always a tough gig when a high street favourite disappears and is replaced. Jack & Alice was a highly popular Tring venue for it’s casual dining, laid back vibe and vintage inspired décor. We were so sad to hear of it’s closure….but news of it’s immediate transformation to “Coluco” meant that we didn’t have […]

I have a few soft spots, and definitely among those are Peterley Manor Farm and foodie pop-ups by talented local chefs. Of course it was a no brainer when I saw Native Feasts were back at Peterley for a Spring Supper Club – we were right there! We’ve been keen to get back to doing […]

It had been the perfect day a couple of weeks back when the sun came as a surprise, but there was still that chill in the air. The skies said shades, but the air said keep your coat on! I couldn’t think of a more welcoming site than the Lazy Pig that night. Set against […]

We love nothing more than to hear about a community getting together and doing it for themselves. This is exactly what’s happening in Wigginton right now in a quest to create a village shop for the first time in years. With the rise of the supermarket, sadly small independent shops started to disappear as they […]

In my search to source interesting local businesses, I was quick to come across the marvellous Puddingstone Distillery and their Campfire Gin. Not only do they have uber cool branding but…well…its gin! Let’s face it, who doesn’t love a good gin and tonic?! In fact, currently gin seems to be the drink of the nation. […]
