It‘s all change in the old home of Nexus. It‘s had a name change. the shop has gone and the cafe has expanded and introduced a new menu. Owner and manager Joanna Martinez was involved in Nexus and decided to take the opportunity to work for herself. With a history in the catering business, she knew what the customers were looking for and chose her international-style menu. There is everything from Spanish tapas and torados. home-made Greek hummus and Italian pastas to jacket potatoes and salads.
The cafe bar has a laid-back feel which allows you to dine at your leisure or just have a coffee while soaking up the sun streaming through the huge windows. Be prepared to fight for a place on the comfy leather sofa that
looks out onto Broughton Street.
The LGB Centre now has a separate entrance directly off the street but it‘s definitely worth a visit to Sala whether you’re visiting the centre. just passing, or having a lazy day drinking coffee and reading the papers. (Jane Hamilton)
