Duke’s Café at Andover and District Mencap’s Wellington Centre had a visit on Tuesday from a number of new people including Iris Andersen.
A spokesperson for the cafe said “It was great to see Iris who popped to the centre for a chat with staff and decided to take lunch at the café.”
Duke’s Cafe was set up for the members of Andover and District Mencap, who have learning disabilities, in order to gain valuable work experience within a catering environment.
The true benefit for the members is the opportunity of them being able to interactive with the local community just as you would, if you were having lunch in the town.
Dukes Café offers you homemade meals and various fillings for baguettes, sandwiches or jacket potatoes and even cake for afters! The prices are very competitive and excellent value for money and the café has a 5 star food hygiene rating from the council.
