Paul Edwards , proprietor of Yummys cafe and takeaway in White Hart Yard , Trowbridge (34536-2)

TROWBRIDGE-based business Yummys is enjoying a renaissance with new premises, a new look and a new menu.

The deli relocated to White Hart Yard from its old location in Fore Street two weeks ago.

The move has enabled owner Paul Edwards, 32, from Trowbridge, to enhance the menu by providing sit-down meals as well as old takeaway favourites.

Mr Edwards has been in the catering industry for 10 years and owned a café in Bath for four years before starting Yummys.

He told Times Two: "We have more choice at our new location because customers can come in and sit down now. We are serving food such as pizzas, steak ciabattas, classic cheeseburgers, Mediterranean vegetable flan and toasted bagels.

"We will soon be doing Ben and Jerry's milkshakes too.

"I don't think there's anywhere in Trowbridge that has the selection we offer. We are more of a deli, which is unique to Trowbridge because no one else is doing this.

"Our breakfast selection is ideal for office workers. They can come in before work and have a coffee and something to eat."

Sandwiches cost from £2.95 each with any filling, which includes delights such as smoked salmon and cream cheese, bacon and avocado and Brie and cranberry.

Pizzas cost £5.50 and are served on olive foccacia bread with salad garnish, or you could choose a Stilton and mushroom tart with mixed salad for £4.95.

Yummys also serves cakes, flapjacks and shortbreads as well as a variety of hot and cold drinks including Fairtrade coffee, which starts at £1.40 for an espresso.

Mr Edwards is also teaming up with Bath University to showcase the students' art.

He said: "We are going to be putting up work from the students at Bath University, which we will sell on commission. We will be changing the artwork every three weeks to keep it fresh."
