The Old Flower Shop, a popular cafe bar in Mapperley Top, is expanding due to overwhelming customer demand. The 70-seater venue will be taking over the vacant property next door, adding an extra 30 seats. The expansion, costing £200,000, is the first phase of a project that will also include an outdoor dining area. The Old Flower Shop will be closed for a week while the work is carried out.
Its a rare position to be in these days, being so busy that customers are turned away. But that's the case at the Old Flower Shop, a popular cafe bar , at Mapperley Top .
It was too good an opportunity to turn down, said co-owner Callum Wightman. "We're looking forward to this. It's not something we were thinking of doing, You're always worried about losing quaintness but it's not actually that huge a space. It will certainly be a lot more breathable in there and relaxing."
"We also do Sunday roasts and at the moment we're having to turn people away because of the lack of space. That's another reason we're doing this."
