Chris said: “It's really exciting to open in Leamington.

"There's a great community spirit in the town and when I opened last week all the customers were so supportive.

“We'll be serving breakfasts, lunches, coffee and cakes and while the café will be fully plant-based we want everyone to feel welcome.”

The Kitchen is open from 8.30am until 4pm from Tuesday to Sunday.
