“We have got the go ahead to be dog friendly, the coffee machine has been serviced, we’ve had a pre EHO visit and we are ready to go!”

Previously located in Cribi Walk, Rosie and Izzy’s was described by customers as a place where people would come when they were struggling and so locals were left shocked and upset by the it’s closing. 

One customer said: “I was in floods of tears when I read the post.

“Rosie and Izzy’s is so much more than just a coffee bar, it’s a mental health hub. 

“Anyone who is struggling comes here and there’s always someone here waiting to give you a hug or a conversation; it’s a safe place.”

Melanie said she is “super excited” to be open again and to see all of her “lovely customers again.”
