Flavel News: Coffee Couture Opens at the Flavel!

You may have noticed the coffee beans appearing on the café window and wondered what was coming…yes Coffee Couture has opened at the Flavel! 

We now have a new vibrant coffee shop, where people can meet and sample the excellent produce on offer. 

The cafe will be serving delicious coffees, teas, cakes and light meals every day, and will also be opening on certain evenings, and to coincide with live events at the Flavel.

In the evening, they will be offering ‘Graze at Couture’, a ‘grazing’ menu with small portions of dishes from different cuisines, which could include Moroccan tagines, Thai curries etc. Dishes will cost between £4.00 and £7.00 each, and a group of four would typically choose three dishes to share.

Friends of the Flavel will be offered a gold loyalty card, which entitles them to 10% off hot drinks, in exchange for a small donation to one of the charities that the company supports.

Come along and give Coffee Couture a try!

Young Guest Reviewer - Star Wars

George Chandler (age 10) has sent in his reaction to this exciting new film, which includes some of the original characters.

We saw this film just before Christmas and my godmother treated us all. She also bought me a water bottle with Star Wars on it so that was brilliant.

The film was very good, I was very sad that Hans Solo died, but I loved the new robot BB8
It was action packed and I'm glad that lots of original characters were in the film.
I hope we get to see more of lLuke in the next film!
I recommend anyone to see it.
With popcorn!

Guest Reviewer - Bridge of Spies

This gripping tale, set in the 1960s, is a spy-swap drama, based on true events. 
The Americans want to recover Gary Powers, a U2 spy plane pilot, who was shot down and captured by the Soviets, and offer to hand over a Russian spy, Rudolf Abel. 

The plan is to exchange the prisoners on the Glienecke Bridge - the so-called Bridge of Spies - which spanned East and West Berlin. There is a tense build-up to the negotiations, with a lot of mistrust and shifting of positions on both sides.

Stephen Spielberg's film stars Tom Hanks as Donovan, the lawyer who brokers the agreement and Mark Rylance plays the Russian, Abel. Both actors put in excellent performances and we believe in their respectful relationship.

This is a good story, well filmed, and well acted. A must-see film at the Flavel.
