The new café will occupy 1,133sq ft at St David’s, Cardiff.
Kin+Ilk, meaning family and kind, is focused on providing directly sourced coffee from the producer, Finca El Corozo, in partnership with Clifton Coffee, whilst supporting the local communities in El Salvador. Locally sourced products from Welsh supplies – including artisan bakery supplier Alex Gooch, The Chocolate Brownie Co., and Douglas Willis Butchers – are available as part of an all-day menu, serving up to 56 covers from breakfast to brunch or lunch, as well as a grab and go offer. All takeaway drinks and food are served in 100% compostable cups and packaging by Vegware.
Haydn Darke, Director at Kin+Ilk commented: “We initially opened at St David’s for a Christmas pop-up, and soon saw the demand for our unique coffee and range of locally made products. We wanted a more permanent location within the destination, so we waited for the right unit to become available to complement our other coffee shops in Wales, and are pleased to have been able to open our doors and grow our business further at St David’s.”
