So… what an opening two months we’ve had. 🧡
We genuinely never expected fract to take off the way it has, and we can’t put into words how grateful we are for the love and support you’ve shown us since we opened our doors.
Every coffee, every plate of food, every visit, every share, every recommendation and every person who’s walked through the door — thank you.
A huge shoutout has to go to and who have been holding the fort and pulling all the strings behind the scenes to make sure you’re all getting banging food and coffee day after day. And, of course, to the rest of our incredible team who have absolutely grafted alongside us.
The hours that have gone into getting fract to where it is today over the last six months have been pretty astronomical. We’ve loved it, but it’s fair to say we’re all ready for a little reset.
With a lot of our kitchen and front-of-house team away next week, we had a decision to make. We could try to muddle through with half a team, or we could do what feels right — close the doors for a week, give everyone a proper break and come back refreshed and ready to go again.
So that’s exactly what we’re doing minus the Pilates, which will be business as usual 🧘♂️
Friday 21st August will be your last chance to get your fract fix before we close for the week.
We’ll then be back, rested, recharged and ready to feed you all again on Tuesday 1st September. ☕️🍳
Some people will probably think we’re mad for closing when things are going so well… but fract is a family-run business, and the reality is our own families have barely seen us over the last few months. Sometimes you’ve just got to recognise when everyone needs a bit of time to switch off, spend time together and recharge.
And right now, a week in the sun sounds pretty bloody good. ☀️
Thank you for making our first two months more than we ever imagined they could be.
We hope you understand, and we’ll see you all very soon. 🧡
Lots of love,
everyone at fract. x
