🧡☕️ NEW MENU AT KOFFIE LOUNGE & LARDER ☕️🧡

As many of you know, alongside our catering and events ventures, we recently opened Koffie Lounge & Larder in Niton, a new Dutch-inspired village coffee shop powered by Hungry Bear & The Events Co.

We’ve spent the first few days treating the opening as a soft launch, welcoming the people of Niton and the surrounding villages through the door, serving great coffee, fresh food and listening to your feedback.

Many of you have been asking to see the menu, so here it is!

As a small independent business, our offering will continue to evolve over the coming weeks and months. We’re taking the time to learn what our customers love and build something that truly serves the community.

Alongside our food menu, you’ll also find a daily selection of freshly baked goods including croissants, scones, cakes and other sweet treats.

A few things to note:

☕ Eat in or takeaway available
🪑 Tables are non-bookable and available on a first-come, first-served basis
🥐 Fresh baked goods available daily
🐾 Dogs welcome
🧡 Supporting local wherever possible

A huge thank you to everyone who has already visited, shared our posts, recommended us to friends or simply popped in for a coffee and a chat.

If you haven’t visited yet, we’d love to welcome you.

what a fantastic first day! ☕️

We have worked incredibly hard to create this space, to move with the times, and create something really special in partnership with Khia Jenzen of The Events Co.

Together, we’ve brought a new offering to the heart of Niton , serving great coffee, baked goods and simple, fresh food in a welcoming community setting.

We just wanted to say a huge thank you to everyone who popped in, grabbed a coffee, stopped for a chat, or wished us well today. The support from the village and beyond has been incredible, and we are genuinely grateful.

It’s been a whirlwind getting everything ready, but it’s great to be back in bricks and mortar and off to such a positive start.

Most importantly, we’re listening. We want this to be a place that reflects what the village and surrounding areas would like to see, and we’re excited to continue developing the offering with your feedback and support.

We’re only just getting started and look forward to growing with you over the coming months.

We’ll be back open tomorrow from 8:30am until 3:30pm, serving fresh coffee, homemade treats and a warm welcome.

Thank you for making our first day so special.

Campsite life for the kids! They’ve all just recently had a skateboarding lesson in at and are now decorating a board that one of them bought from the shop.

This is why I do it. To see kids making life long friends and hobbies! SKATECAMP!
