Showcasing sustainable businesses: championing independent cafés

Support your local café!

The Herald will be launching its search for our favourite café in the Sid Valley next month:

Sidmouth Herald Café of the Year: Nominate your favourite | Sidmouth Herald

Interestingly, it’s being launched as part of the Herald’s ongoing aim of “highlighting more great local businesses” – although of course ‘favourite’ café might not, strictly speaking, be ‘local’!

Here are a couple of local businesses which have been highlighted on these pages…

There are some excellent independent cafés in Sidmouth, with fresh, home-made produce:

Showcasing sustainable businesses: Browns’ Kitchen Bakery – Sustainable Sidmouth Champion Awards

Showcasing sustainable businesses: The Chattery – Sustainable Sidmouth Champion Awards

Showcasing sustainable businesses: The Dairy Shop – Sustainable Sidmouth Champion Awards

Many consider the ice cream from Taste of Sidmouth as the best in town – but you can also get a good cup of coffee there:
