The food has been described as 'amazing'

Coffee shop owners forced to shut up shop during the pandemic and reinvent the business in a mobile trailer have opened a pretty in pink new home. There's no missing the eye-catching container in Colwick Park, which opened on Wednesday serving warming cuppas and filling snacks.

She said: "It was in a terrible state internally so I had to refloor it and rebuild the counters. We had this amazing artist Fish Fingers Wrapped in Ham, who did all the paintwork on the outside. I couldn't be happier, It's absolutely brilliant." Nothing warms them up like one of the coffees, with a choice of americano, latte, espresso, macchiato and cortado. There might not be as many takers for a frappe, iced latte, milkshake or Italian gelato while temperatures plummet to three degrees but hot chocolate topped with cream and a flake are all the rage.

"That's what it's about for us. It's not about the profit, it's about the experience and making sure what we're doing is the best we can do," said Très, who was a psychotherapist for 20 years until she had a complete career change, opening Wired in 2013. "We did do a leap of faith and bought a small trailer and came down here," said Très, admitting to a tiny white lie. "Vanessa is the rock - I have all these ideas, She said go down and see if this is tenable. I came down on a Saturday and stayed an hour - eight people walked by. I went home and I thought I can't tell her that so I said there was 80 people and she said right ok we can make that work.

She said she couldn't have done it without the support of Vanessa, a pilates instructor in Sherwood. "I am the hands-on one here but it really is that old adage, behind every good woman there's another amazing woman."
