It has seemed like an age coming…and today we have opened a new Coffee Shop concept in Fosse Park (Leicester). It’s 160 seats with an outdoor terrace! The coffee & food is delicious, and new super-sized cakes 🍰 A huge well done to the Hospitality, Property & Store Design teams! It’s one of the most beautiful Coffee Shops we have in the estate. Now over to you Andy and team! I’m super proud 😊 PS - photos are mine (I’m sure I’ll be able to get professional ones shortly! But I couldn’t wait to share!)

Store looking great I have fond memories of fosse park it’s were I started my M&S career. Extended over the years i was Vm manager there when we knocked through to the mothercare store to create a home store as well as making fosse park one of the first white box concept stores. Great to see it doing well.

We had a blast with this one. Such a stunning space!

It was great to partner with the Marks and Spencer team to bring this brand-new, stylish M&S Café to life! A final result that we can all be proud of 👏

And it looks like you get to talk to someone rather than being forced to use a kiosk 👍🏻

Space looks amazing, Alicia! The attention to the details, from interior design to pastries, from the choice of materials to the product exhibition. I would be super proud as I am sure you are to be part of the M&S retail (R)evolution!
