"This does not mean B&C is over! We will be working with other cafes to move to wholesale our beans and hopefully if the premises stays as a cafe we can keep our coffee in Crumlin.
"We would like to thank every single customer and our everyday loyal customer for all your support. We made many amazing friends from our time there and it was an honour to know you all. Hopefully in the new year we'll be back in Crumlin if things change."
