Italian coffee concept opens second UK site

12th May 2009, 4:55pm

Italian top-end coffee concept Ca'puccino will open its second UK site and its first high street unit in Westfield shopping centre in Shepherds Bush, London, in July.

Ca'puccino offers a real Italian cafe experience and combines coffee, Italian sandwiches and gelato – the distinctive national ice-cream. It has also devised a menu concept which takes its ideas from the country's regional dishes.

As a result the coffee menu is not the standard espresso and cappuccino mix but is comprised of coffee-based speciality drinks based on regional items previously created in Napoli, Torino, Sorrento and Siciliy.

Alice Keown of Davis Coffer Lyons, Westfield's sole food and beverage agent, said: "Ca'puccino is a high-class coffee operator, nothing like the UK high street has seen before and we are very pleased to have secured it for Westfield London.

"The concept fits perfectly with Westfield's food and beverage strategy as it will be a new offer to many of the visitors to the centre and will bring a quality product in a wonderfully restful environment and it has great synergies with the other tenants in the Village. It will be just the place to recharge during a shopping afternoon."
