City centre café and bakery to celebrate first year in Worcester

A POPULAR bakery and café is preparing to celebrate one year in the city centre.

Muffin Break, High Street, Worcester, is approaching 12 months of serving up fresh muffins, cakes, and savoury treats to visitors.

Suresh Patel, franchisee of Muffin Break Worcester, said: “We’re really excited to be approaching our first birthday in Worcester.

“It’s been a fantastic first year and we’re so grateful for the support we’ve received from the local community.

“Our team of 15 local staff work hard to ensure they deliver the best customer experience.

“Our goal is to provide a warm, friendly atmosphere where locals can enjoy the simple pleasure of a coffee and a muffin that was baked just hours—or even minutes—before.

“We look forward to welcoming both new and returning customers to celebrate with us in May.”

Muffin Break took over the former TopShop and Charlie Brown location in the Cathedral Square complex, and the site underwent an extensive four-week renovation which saw the changing rooms and checkouts torn out in favour of a bar and kitchen.

The café has since become a popular addition to Worcester’s food and drink scene.

Muffin Break’s food menu caters to all-day dining, offering breakfast favourites from 8am, as well as toasted flatbreads and paninis until 5.30pm Monday to Saturday, and 5pm on Sunday.

The café also offers vegan and low-gluten options.

Maria Hughes, centre manager of Cathedral Square, said: “We’re delighted to see Muffin Break approaching its first birthday here at Cathedral Square.

“It has become a valued part of our line-up, bringing something a little different to Worcester with its freshly baked goods and friendly atmosphere.

“We’re looking forward to celebrating this milestone with them and encouraging even more people to come and experience what they have to offer.”
