There’s a new spot to get your caffeine hit locally, with Bean to Brew cafe recently opening at the Brighton Civic Centre in Bridgewater. The team behind the cafe are Sam and Heather – they ran the business out of a coffee van for many years but the new bricks-and-mortar cafe gives locals a spot to meet, connect and enjoy good food and coffee.

Bean to Brew also sponsors pro­grams like Café Connections. The new cafe offers a range of lunch eats such as toasties, chowder, soups and curries. They also stock a range of cakes and sweet treats which are supplied fresh through­out the week from Jen’s Kitchen Kreations, a Rosetta-based cater­ing business.

Bean to Brew is open Monday to Friday, 7am to 3pm at 25 Green Point Rd, Bridgewater. For more information, check out www.face­book.com/beantobrewcafe.
