Co. promises tasty treats, made-to-order specialities and plenty of veg options
We’re rather excited about Cherry Hinton’s new foodie hotspot: a super-stylish, forward-thinking daytime eatery going under the name of Co.
The emphasis will be on delicious, healthy foods, all freshly prepared and including lots of vegetarian and vegan options, as well as plenty of dishes for gluten-free diners.
On the menu you can expect a variety of daily changing dishes hand prepared every morning and made using the freshest and highest quality fruit, vegetables, grains and meats. Expect tasty treats like handmade granola, bircher muesli, raw cacao and almond slice and blood orange polenta cake, as well as ‘made to order’ specialities. These will be created with locally sourced or house-made artisan breads using organic flour sourced from local mills, seasonal veg sourced from local farms and sensibly sourced meats. Both menus will be heavily influenced by seasonal produce and there will be nutritious goodies like protein quinoa bowls, breakfast salads, kati rolls, open sandwiches and seasonal soups to enjoy too.
Set to be one of the most environmentally-conscious cafés in Cambridge, Co. will have a strong focus on sustainability, recycling and reducing its carbon footprint. This philosophy has informed the entire process for the renovations, from sourcing to storage, and the ultimate plan is for a zero waste policy.
Food and drinks-wise, they’re working exclusively with local farms and independent producers, coffee roasters and microbreweries.
Looking into the future, the management hope for Co. to become a producer itself, creating marinades, jams and the like, as well as setting up a bakery and grocery space.
