A HEREFORDSHIRE café is expanding with a new salad counter and a children's corner. 

Emmas Farmhouse Cafe in Bromyard has a five-star rating on Tripadvisor, with the vast majority of its reviewers rating it as "excellent".

And its popularity in the town has seen the owner embark on exciting plans to expand, taking on the next-door unit.

Customers will be able to see how the café now looks with a grand opening at 9am this Saturday (March 23).

Café owner Emma Simcock said:  "Not only will we have more seating which is something I've needed since opening the café in 2021 but we will be offering lots of new healthier options.

"Myself and my amazing team have worked tirelessly these past couple of days and we’ve achieved so much,

"I can’t thank our lovely customers enough for all the wonderful messages and offers of help.

"My team also - café manager Teri Laura, who I couldn’t have done any of this without, Caitlyn Harper, Liv Simcock and Ilaria Day for going above and beyond to make this happen. I really do have the best team."

The café replaced the former 'Café on the Corner' in the town's Market Square.

Mrs Simcock initially had a successful online business called Emma's Farmhouse Bakes, which sold brownies and cakes via Facebook. 

Many companies around Herefordshire, and even as far as Scotland, approached her as she built up her clientele, she said.

Emmas Farmhouse Cafe will also be open this Sunday (March 24) from 10am.
