Just over two months ago The Specialty coffee shop in Nottingham served its last customer - or so fans thought. But now it's back under new ownership.
The couple who originally founded the business blamed the pandemic, the crashing economy and the cost of living crisis when they announced the closure in November 2022 to the dismay of regulars who loved the artisan coffee, Italian sandwiches and cakes.
However, a few weeks later it was revealed the laid-back rustic cafe would be reopening with the help of "local investors." And today (Wednesday, January 25) is the day. Lucy Giacone and her partner Michelangelo (known as Miky to regulars) Franco, who originally opened the coffee shop in 2016, are no longer involved.
