It is with a very heavy heart that I am writing this post.
Due to my health, I have made the incredibly difficult decision to close Central Café. This has not been an easy choice, but after a lot of thought, I know it is the right one for me and my family.
The last four years have meant more to me than words can say. Central Café has been such a huge part of my life, and it has been a privilege to serve such wonderful customers. Many of you have become so much more than customers – you’ve become friends. Your loyalty, kindness, laughter, and support over the years have meant absolutely everything to me, and I will never be able to thank you enough.
I also want to say a very special thank you to Chantelle, who has been by my side for the past four years. Your hard work, dedication and unwavering support have helped make Central Café what it has been. I truly couldn’t have done it without you, and I will always be grateful for everything you’ve done.
Running the café has given me so many wonderful memories that I will treasure forever. Although I’m heartbroken that this chapter is coming to an end, I know it’s time for me to put my health first.
I would also like to wish the new owners every success as they begin their own journey. I hope you’ll welcome them with the same warmth and support that you’ve always shown me. Please give them a try – I’m sure they’ll appreciate your custom just as much as I have.
From the bottom of my heart, thank you all for four unforgettable years. Your support has meant more than you’ll ever know, and I will miss seeing you all every day.
With all my love and gratitude,
Mandy xx
