A WINCHESTER coffee shop has pushed back its opening date.
Kavi Coffee, in Jewry Street, was going to open its doors to customers on May 20.
However, the shop has pushed back its opening due to “unexpected challenges”.
A spokesperson for the shop said: “Unfortunately, we must delay our grand opening.
“Every detail matters in our quest to craft the perfect cup of coffee. From the beans we select to the unique atmosphere we want to create for you. Our beautiful historic building, with its rich and creative history, in the last 24 hours has presented us with some unexpected challenges.

“Just as the perfect brew takes time, we’re taking this extra time to honour the building's legacy and make sure everything is just right.”
The spokesperson said that a new opening date will be confirmed shortly.

The coffee shop will be replacing the former Sofa Workshop. According to the government website Companies House, the business is owned by Dhan Bahadur Tamang and Dhan Bahadur Sakri.
Mr Tamang is also the founder of DT Coffee Roastery, in Moorside Road, which is a specialist retailer supplying coffee to businesses in the UK and internationally.
