Business owner praised on 'amazing job bringing old coffee shop back to life' at historic glass cone near Stourbridge
A new coffee shop has opened its doors at the historic Red House Glass Cone in Wordsley.
Heavenly Baking owner Zoe Konopka, who runs a popular coffee shop in Walsall, unveiled the new Red Cone Coffee House at the landmark venue near Stourbridge today (Friday October 24).
Ward councillors Adam Davies and Wayne Little were excited to attend the opening after campaigning to Dudley Council, which owns the cone site, to try to find a new tenant for the empty coffee shop unit.
Cllr Davies said: "Zoe and the Heavenly Baking team have done an amazing job bringing the old coffee shop back to life – perfectly blending their passion for great food and drink together with a proud celebration of our local glass-making heritage.”
With more than 16 years in hospitality, Zoe turned her lifelong love of baking into a thriving business inspired by her nan’s handwritten recipes.
Heavenly Baking produces cakes, traybakes and biscuits - all freshly made by Zoe and her dedicated bakery team.
The new Wordsley coffee shop will run alongside Zoe’s existing Heavenly Baking shop in Walsall and she aims to use produce sourced within a 60-mile radius to support local suppliers and reduce food miles.
As well as coffee and cakes, the venture in Camp Hill, Wordsley, will also offer cooked breakfasts, plus lunches from midday to 3pm.
The coffee shop’s opening hours are 10am to 4pm Tuesday to Sunday.
