POSITIVITY BEGINS.
FIRST OF ALL.
The phones haven’t stopped ringing. Opportunities, collaborations and support. Weve spent some of this time checking in on old staff (👀 we may have a collab with a few of the very talented artists we used to work with) old staff checking in on us ( we see you) , customer excitement, love, supplier offers of help and lot of help from a big hearted Birmingham Brother (more on that another day)
What comes next?
This is a teaser. We are still in the process of signing and unlocking funding (as we are literally broke 👌🙏) but that shouldn’t be too far out. We have big dreams for this place. We want it to be serviceable for around 10 tables and have a focus on everything weve been passionate about but having been able to show. We are creating those incredible NY style cookies you all adored, curating european coffee from some great names but also….
We want it to be luxurious, we want to provide people with access to luxury that doesnt break the bank, in a space that doesnt just feel like another indie cafe. We want to bring people a feel of modern euro hangout spot but against a very cool backdrop (we cant release what that is yet) - our drinks list will go above and beyond the drinks we all colloquially know as standard and we will build and lean in to what you enjoy mixed with a very alternative take on ‘seasonality’.
SECONDLY
We are in line to be making a TV appearance with our cookies between April and July 👀👀👀 crazy af we know. .nian95 hasn’t stopped throwing up.
FINALLY
Theres enough pauses and clues in this video for you to work out where we might be going… 👀🤙 drop comments and ideas where in the comments.
Much love. Icarus x
