How Crumb began

A sunlit café corner with wooden tables and cushioned chairs beside open doors onto palms.

“I wanted one place in town where the bread was still warm at eight and nobody minded if you stayed all morning.”

Hannah Cole, who opened Crumb in 2016

She baked for the Saturday market from her own kitchen for three years before the old ironmonger’s on Chapel Street came up. The long table is still the one from her kitchen.
