Café 5 Opens
We are pleased to announce that the cafe at the Royal Findhorn Yacht Club will reopen as Café 5 this Saturday 13 April at 9:30am. The Café 5 Team will be offering breakfast rolls (so get yours ordered when you come down for the work party at 10:00am), soups, paninis,cakes and various refreshments. The Team intends to open each day from 9:30am until 4:30pm, and on Friday and Saturday will be open till 8.30pm to cover evening meals for Members (EXCEPT 13th April), the Team did not have enough notice to prepare for evening meals! Sorry!
The Café 5 Team hopes to send out an email to Members at the start of each week with the menu choices for the weekend and asks that Members book with Café 5 to ensure that there is availability. Those who do not book will have to chance that the Café has food left! As it is a new venture, the Team does not wish to overstock and can therefore keep costs down.
This venture is being run by four existing staff and a club member – members who use the club regularly will know the whole Team – and each member of the Team has invested time and money to offer this catering to the Members and the public. so please, please use the catering facilities and tell lots of people to use the Café as well – the Club and the Café 5 Team need to make this work, not just for the Team, but for the sake of the Club as well.
