History
Established in 1971.
Rainbow café was started in the early seventies as an arts community with a pottery, dress design, photography and animation. It has only changed hands 3 times in 40 years and some of the recipes have been handed down since then. My daughter fell in love with the rainbow door handle when I brought her here as a small child and persuaded me to buy it two years ago and we now run it together. We have tried to keep the atmosphere and homely feel but have added 21st century essentials such as wi-fi and a card machine!

Business Owner
I have been a teacher all my working life but on retiring was persuaded by my daughter to buy our favourite café! We both love cooking and meeting lots of new customers and keeping in touch with our long standing regulars.
