Grassington business is shop number 14 in UK network of owned and franchised outlets
Chocolate brownie and café franchise Love Brownies has opened a new shop in the heart of Grassington, a popular tourist town in the Yorkshire Dales.
Originating in Yorkshire and with its headquarters in Ilkley, the brand has a growing network of owned and franchised outlets, with the Grassington shop being its 14th to open in the UK.
The shop and café will offer Love Brownies products alongside a range of premium coffees and a ‘Dales Kitchen’ breakfast and lunch menu.
It will also feature a first for the network - an ice cream hatch, which will serve a range of flavours from ice cream partner Northern Bloc.
Chantal Teal, Love Brownies’ owner and head baker, says: “We’re excited to expand our business with the Grassington franchise, which will be our first to open with a dedicated ice cream hatch.
“We’re thrilled to offer our award winning brownies to another corner of the Yorkshire Dales, where the brand first started.”
Grassington franchise owners Olivia Beale and Joshua Ockerby say: “The shop is in a fantastic location for hungry walkers and cyclists and we’re anticipating a busy summer.
“We’re so pleased to be bringing business into the area during a time that has been difficult for so many.
“We have had such a warm welcome to the town and been busy every day since opening, with queues for the ice cream on warm days.”
