IT is official, a new business will soon be moving into the site of the former Costa Coffee in Stockton Heath.

The Coffee House will soon be opening on London Road in the village.

Since being founded in 2011 by brothers Chris and Stephen Shelmerdine, the business has grown from a single storefront in Lymm to having coffee shops in more than 20 locations.

The Coffee House ensures quality by roasting its coffee beans in their Warrington-based central production facility.

And its range of freshly baked cakes and menu featuring breakfast, sandwiches and paninis are also prepared locally.

Talking of the Coffee House’s unique approach, co-founder Chris said: "We pride ourselves on creating that authentic local coffee shop experience.

“Our customers aren't just customers, they're part of our community.

“Whether they're here to work, catch up with friends, or simply enjoy a moment to themselves, they know they'll be welcomed with a warm smile and their favourite cup of coffee."

To celebrate the Stockton Heath opening, which is expected to be in August, as well as the firm’s 13th anniversary, the community will be invited to join in with opening week festivities.

Customers will be able to enjoy free sample and exclusive discounts.

"We're excited to bring our passion for coffee and community to more neighbourhoods in Warrington," says Debbie Banks, manager of the Stockton Heath branch, which will be the firm's 24th location.

"It's about more than just coffee, it's about creating a space where everyone feels welcome and valued."
