🍬 Important Notice 🍬

After opening our doors in November and working flat out ever since, we're taking our first short family break.

The shop will be closed from Monday 29th June until Thursday 2nd July inclusive, reopening as normal on Friday 3rd July.

As a small family-run business, we don't often get the chance to step away, so we're looking forward to a few days to rest, recharge and spend some time together.

Thank you so much for all the support you've shown us since we opened. It truly means the world to us, and we can't wait to see you again when we reopen on 3rd July.

Unfortunately, after trialling our Breakfast Club this week, demand hasn't been high enough to make the earlier opening hours viable. We'd like to thank everyone who supported the trial and we'll continue looking at new ways to serve our customers.

🎒NEW! THE SWEET JAR BREAKFAST CLUB 🎒

After many requests, starting next week we’ll be trialing a weekday breakfast menu for students, available from 7:30am before school.

We know mornings can be busy, so we’re offering a quick, affordable breakfast option to help everybody start the school day with something tasty before heading into the classroom.

🥞 2 Pancakes + Sauce – £2
🧇 Small Waffle + Sauce – £2
🍓 Add Strawberries – £1
🍌 Banana or Apple – 50p
🥤 Unlimited Dilute Juice – 50p
🥣 Cereal Available

Whether it’s a treat before school or a simple breakfast on the go, we’re hoping this will be a useful option for local families.

📅 Launching next week
⏰ Weekdays from 7:30am
📍 The Sweet Jar

This is a trial, so we’d love to hear your feedback. If this is something you’d use for your children, give this post a like, share it with other parents, and let us know what you’d like to see added in the future! 💙

A message from us.

Since opening our doors in November 2025, we’ve been overwhelmed by the kindness and support shown by the vast majority of our customers. We genuinely appreciate every single one of you.

However, there is something that needs to be said.

We are proud to employ a diverse team. Some of our staff have additional needs and may communicate differently, work at a different pace, or require a little extra support. That does not make them any less deserving of patience, kindness, and respect.

Every member of our team comes to work each day to do their best, and we will not tolerate anyone being spoken down to, mocked, dismissed, or treated as though they are somehow “less than” because they are different.

As a business, inclusion is not something we do for appearances. It is one of our core values. We believe everyone deserves the opportunity to work, contribute, and be treated with dignity.

If our approach isn’t for you, that’s your choice. But if you choose to visit our shop, we expect our staff to be treated with the same courtesy and respect that we show our customers.

We will always stand behind our team.

Thank you to the many customers who make our shop such a welcoming place to be. Your kindness never goes unnoticed. ❤️

💜✨ Kindness Cards at The Sweet Jar, 8th June ✨💜

Quiet Monday activity is all about spreading a little kindness.

Join us to create a handmade kindness card that could brighten someone's day. Whether you're 5 or 95, everyone is welcome to take part.

Your card could be:
💌 Given to someone in the room
📮 Posted to a family member or friend
🏪 Hand-delivered to a local high street business
😊 Kept ready for when someone needs a little smile

We'll provide everything you need, including card blanks, pens, stickers and decorations.

🌿 Quiet Mondays are designed to offer a calmer, more relaxed environment for anyone who prefers a quieter setting. Perfect for home-educating families, autistic people, those with SEND, people with sensory sensitivities, or anyone who enjoys a peaceful atmosphere.

💙 Reduced noise and distractions
🐢 Relaxed pace
🎲 Optional board games and quiet activities
☕ A warm welcome for everyone

Sometimes the smallest act of kindness can make the biggest difference. We'd love for you to join us and help spread a little joy throughout our community.
