Welcome to our Community
Community is so important to us. We all need an opportunity to connect with others, take time out and do something for ourselves. We regularly host a range of events from book club to craft events and more. Take a look at our current timetable of events and book your ticket soon as spaces are limited.

Our Friendly Faces Meet-Up is Back!
Every Thursday afternoon, local Carer Nikki will be hosting our friendly faces table here in the café. At 2.30pm, we provide free cups of tea and an hour of conversation and company.
Perfect for anyone local looking to meet a few new people, have a little chit chat or even just observe what’s going on with some company. Generally appealing to our older local residents, but everyone is welcome.
Community is so important to us at Chestnut & Rose and we are lucky to be located in the centre of Kesgrave, near some other fabulous small businesses. Friendly Faces is just one small thing we are doing to bring people together and we hope you can join us soon!
