Our Community Cafe is open
Monday – Friday 10:00 am until 1:30 pm
Come along and enjoy some fantastic savoury lunches made in-house, coffee courtesy of Clifton Coffee Roasters, a good selection of teas, home-made cakes and Chew Moo Ice Creams in our relaxed cafe environment. We also have plenty of children’s lunch and snack options plus we cater for gluten-free, vegetarian and vegan requirements. Take away options are available for all our menu options.
WiFi is available in the cafe free-of-charge; please just ask for the password at the counter 
We have a small Community Library in the L A Cafe, where you can donate any books you like and don’t need. Likewise, borrow from it anything you want to. This is a combination of what used to be called the Transition Library (books with a green/spiritual/political/social slant), and the L A Cafe’s collection of novels.

Café therapy room:
From Monday 16th April, holistic therapist Sarah Britton will be offering the relaxing therapy of Reflexology. Reflexology is a natural, non-invasive therapy that helps to restore balance and harmony. It deals with the principle that there are reflex areas in the feet and hands that correspond to all parts of the body. By working on these areas reflexology helps to relieve stress and tension; improve blood supply and promote the unblocking of nerve impulses and helps to restore balance naturally.
Sarah will be here every Monday, Tuesday and Wednesday mornings from 10.00 until 1:30 pm (term time only) offering 1/2 hour mini treatments (£20) and 1-hour full treatments (£35). You can either pop in on the day for an appointment or, if you prefer to book in advance to guarantee your appointment, then you can book online here.
For any questions, call Sarah on 07985 931131 or email: britton_sarah@yahoo.co.uk.
