We’re already receiving some wonderful feedback from our visitors. One recent customer wrote:

“Both yesterday and two weeks ago my wife and I visited for a bacon and sausage cob and a coffee. We were ably looked after by Daisy and Aidan. These two pupils were both fantastic — clearly well trained, pleasant and efficient. They are a credit to your school and themselves. Well done to all involved! 👍👍👍”

This lovely feedback highlights the skills, dedication, and professionalism our students bring to the café each week. The experience of running Dawn’s Diner provides invaluable opportunities for teamwork, communication, and real-world hospitality practice – and it’s clear our customers appreciate their efforts!

So why not pop in one Friday morning this term? Enjoy a delicious bacon or sausage cob, a hot coffee, and friendly service from our KS5 DH team.

Dawn’s Diner – open Fridays, 9:15am-10:30am. We look forward to seeing you!
