The thriving coffee shop Bean & Bread has officially opened a second shop in Rogerstone, Newport. 

In 2018, the owner, Jess, opened the first coffee shop in Abergavenny after returning from travelling in New Zealand.

In a Facebook Post, she said: "Thrilled to announce our second location – Bean & Bread Rogerstone!

"Opening a site here feels like coming home after growing up in the Newport area & I’ve always wanted to give back to the community. 

The interior of the original coffee shop is designed with a Scandinavian influence to create a warm and cosy atmosphere.  

It is well known for its various plants that help create a touch of greenery and tranquillity for customers.  

The coffee shop also offers an all-day brunch menu which changes seasonally, and everything is made to order and sourced from local suppliers.
