'Everything in here is for sale'
A new Liverpool coffee shop has opened with a unique twist - you can buy all of the furniture inside it.
James, a 48 year-old from North Wales, said: “Our landlord is from a catering background. He said, 'the City of Liverpool College is opposite, you’d be mad not to make it a coffee shop'. We thought about it, sat in Café Tabac and this was born. This place was born over a coffee.” He added: “The whole thing is giving something loved and beautiful a second chance. That was just applied to furniture but now it’s a building as well.”
Pointing to the table made in Speke, he said: “The company that made this table, they made these tables for 40 years. There's a desk which came from the old Huyton barracks. Then it became a guy’s work bench for years. It was built to last. We’ve become so throw away. It’s easy to overlook things.” Their only recruit was Ollie Laidlaw, 24 year-old from Crosby. As well as being the barista, Ollie is the founder of Rough C.U.T.S.
