Faun owners Shona Kelly and Jon White will open The Kettle Sings on Jubilee Drive on Monday, October 19.

Faun owners Shona Kelly and Jon White have announced that The Kettle Sings will open on Monday, October 19. The pair took over the historic Jubilee Drive tearoom earlier this year after it had been closed since around January 2025. Ms Kelly said the response to their reopening plans had been "phenomenal".

Originally a workman's cottage in the early twentieth century, The Kettle Sings was enlarged to become a tearoom in 1928. The new site will differ from Faun's existing bakery on Worcester Road and café at the Morgan Experience Centre, offering a menu that includes brunch and lunch options, toasted tea cakes, scones and various cakes. The venue will also feature a Sunday lunch menu, desserts and a bar.

Ms Kelly said in a video shared on the business' social media: "We are getting incredibly close now. The road is reopening today, the electrician has finally turned up, the coffee machine is up and running and we're having our first coffees today." Customers can now book online.
