Coffee shop Goose in Parkgate's grand opening this weekend

Goose in Parkgate is described as 'a stylish café boasting a fabulous' new outdoor seating area, a fresh modern interior - that is children and dog-friendly – along with a broad selection of hot and cold breakfast options, lunch and cake delights, and exceptional full roast coffee'.

Its owners and Parkgate locals, Gemma and Paul Pryor, bought the much-loved building on Coastguard Lane after a year of it being empty.

With a lot of hard work and craftmanship, the couple has completely renovated, remodelled and styled the coffee shop into a warm and welcoming space.

During its grand opening on Saturday there will be a selection of treats, games, and 10% discount off any orders, along with the full menu launch. Doors will be open to everyone from 9am.

Gemma said: "It's been a tiring but exciting adventure to get to where we are.

"The previous coffee shop that occupied the building had always been so popular with locals, school parents and day visitors to Parkgate, so we were mindful to create something new, but that captured the buzz and spirit of the community – and to do it justice.

"We’ve worked very hard to make sure we’ve sourced the best quality produce, from the Fairtrade, full roast Columbian coffee and the Liverpool Warehouse brand of teas, to the speciality Zuma hot chocolates and Welsh bread and handmade cakes.
