I imagine it’s quite easy to get planning change of use from bog to trendy coffee house but can you imagine applying for change of use from trendy coffee house to bog!

I’d love to see something similar (and with similar quality coffee) in Bristol.

I’ll try to check out Cafe on the Square and the Downs Tea Rooms when I’m next in Bristol!

As well as reviewing Cafe on The Square in Shirehampton, I recently visited The Attendant in Fitzrovia and it’s a remarkable transformation (the coffee was fantastic, too). As well as Prince Street, perhaps the disused Victorian toilets on the junction of Park Row and Woodland Road could also be turned into a cafe. It’s a wonderful building and one currently being used for an exhibition.
