UPDATE: we’re afraid the cafe will be closed tomorrow due to a staffing shortage. Watch this space for details of our next pay-what-you-can day. Thank you for your patience & support.
✨ Special offer this Thursday 7 May! On the day of the local elections, we’ll have a pay-what-you-can menu in the café.
Come by, take a moment, and pay what feels right for you. Everyone is welcome 💚
If you’re able to pay a little more, it helps support the cafe and means we can keep it accessible for others in our community who might need it.

Helena is leaving The Platform Café after nearly four wonderful years with us.
She has been a hugely valued member of the team - starting as a barista and growing into our Youth Employability Coordinator. Helena has brought warmth, kindness, patience and a calm, steady presence to the café every single day.
She has supported so many young people on their journeys into work, always with care, encouragement and genuine belief in each person she works with.
She’s also been at the heart of creating the friendly, welcoming atmosphere that makes this café such a special community space 💚
Thank you for everything Helena 🙏

We’ll be sad to say goodbye to our long-standing neighbour Ray @sunshineistudios , who’s been a friend of the café since the very beginning 💚
It’s been a real joy having him as a regular and collaborating on so many brilliant projects over the years - from carnival arts workshops at @groveapg_ , to a Trinidadian cook-up and celebration at @loughboroughfarm , and developing culturally appropriate recipes to support sleep health as part of the ‘Night Club’ work with Liminal Space, supporting NHS and transport night shift workers.
Our very first winter market also took place in the arches that have since hosted Loughborough Junction Action Group’s meetings, AGMs and countless community events - so it really does feel like the end of an era.
We’re looking forward to continuing to work together as part of First Five Lambeth, and of course as friends.
We’ll be coming along to Out of De Alleyway’s final exhibition on 29 & 30 April - head over to @sunshineistudios for more details.
