The summer family
Climpson's Arch
Why locals love it
An industrial lot underneath a train bridge doesn't exactly scream of summer vibes, but given the love of dedicated owners that's exactly what it has. Open just for the sunny months this multi-purpose pop-up prides itself on its multiple identities, from coffee to BBQ to art, each as well prepared as anywhere in the East.

Why you should visit it
Climpson's Arch is a fantastic example of the leftover space of a city being transformed into a useful place that warms the heart with character. The owners are firmly established in their community delivering what they themselves like, and subsequently what the locals like to.
