Krzysztof has built an amazing reputation for quality coffee and delicious cakes at Idlewells Indoor market, and their expansion to Kirkby will see a new café offer in the heart of the town centre.”

Krzysztof Urbaniak said “I am extremely excited about this opportunity. I want to offer customers high quality food and drink with a high level of customer service and look forward to welcoming new customers to the café.”
