We’re delighted to announce the soft opening of our new café space at All Saints Church,

Ryde, starting Monday 11th May 2026, ahead of our full launch in September.

Join us for Love Mondays, our weekly dedicated wellbeing day, running every Monday from

8:00–12:00. Enjoy complimentary filter coffee, tea, and baked cakes and treats, with barista made coffee also available for a small donation.

This is a relaxed and welcoming space for all — a great opportunity to connect with others,

explore the newly renovated church, and find out more about church life, including Alpha,

upcoming events, and our Love Your Neighbour projects.

We’d love to see you there and welcome members of our local community each week.
