    First Tony Tantastic and his hidden hairdressers and now a hidden away cafe. I wonder how much of their income will be kept hidden from the taxman."

New cafe opened by popular demand in Chippenham

HIDDEN away at the back of one of Chippenham’s most popular independent shops, a brand new cafe is set to open its doors on Saturday.

Craft retailer Phase Patch on the Causeway will launch the Sassetta Cafe a year and a half after it moved to the former Chinese restaurant.

Proprietors Faye Matthew-man and Simon Heaney said customers have been asking for somewhere to sit and have a coffee for some time.

“We’ve opened our cafe in response to demand from customers,” said Mr Heaney.

“They’ve always wanted somewhere to take a break while out shopping.”

Mr Heaney said the area will also act as a “husband dump” for shopped-out partners to sit and enjoy a treat.

“It’s ideal for those disgruntled husbands who would rather be sipping coffee and reading a paper than shopping,” he said.
