The catering industry sees a lot of trends come and go however something that doesn’t seem to be going out of fashion any time soon are vintage themed cafés.

Popular amongst shoppers who want a quick coffee and those looking for some delicious food, vintage style coffee shops are popping up all over the UK.

Stereotypical décor is mismatched and vibrant, floral prints line the walls, odd sofas and chairs are in place for guests to relax on and knick-knacks are scattered around to give a homely feel.

For coffee shop owners choosing appropriate tableware is a difficult task, finding something that matches a vintage setting but doesn’t have the over-used worn down look of authentic vintage crockery isn’t easy.

C&C have found an answer. Churchill’s signature hand-crafted plates are now being printed with vintage Bramble and Willow designs, perfect for that kitsch look. The prints are also available on tea sets, essential for a café.

Churchill took the designs from original prints in their archives which ensures that they are designed specifically with vintage in mind, they describe the collection as “very much in the fashion spotlight, creating a stylish visual experience that is far from predictable.”

Patterns can be mixed and matched making each collection unique or for those who want a modern twist on a classic collection a whole set would look wonderful stacked up in a café as a display item.

An added bonus from Churchill too – their crockery comes with a 5 year edge chip free warranty, which promises that the products will last through heavy use.
