About Bread & Honey

Bread and Honey | Independent Leicester Cafe
An independent cafe nestled on King Street, Leicester serving all-day coffee, smoothies, soups, salads, sandwiches and cakes.
Bread & Honey as a concept came around after I was offered a retail unit on King st. Leicester. It was terribly run down but it was a Victorian building of great potential. We came to the name ‘Bread & Honey’ because of the shop’s location on King st, I wanted a name that had a ‘warm’ or ‘familiar’ resonance so the logical choice was to use a nursery rhyme that would allow us to pull from the mental imagery created within. ‘Sing a song of sixpence’ with the mention of a ‘King’ was the obvious choice and it threw up plenty of options, ‘Sixpence’ for one ‘4 and 20’ was another even ‘parlour’ we even had a very high profiled advertising agency in London (so that is what friends are for) look at the name and branding only to come up with my original preferred option, ‘Bread & Honey’.
