Fitzbillies’ opens new bakery coffee shop in King’s Parade, Cambridge

Fitzbillies has opened its new branch at 15 King’s Parade in Cambridge.

The new bakery/coffee shop - Fitzbillies’ third outlet in the city - opened last Friday and was soon full of customers warming themselves against the freezing weather with bacon baps, sourdough toasties and artisan coffee, not to mention the famous Chelsea buns.

Owner Alison Wright said: “We’re delighted to have opened a new branch of Fitzbillies in this most beautiful and iconic of all Cambridge locations – opposite King’s College Chapel. We’re looking forward to welcoming locals and visitors alike. We’ll be serving simple savoury food like breakfast baps, sausage rolls and toasties, along with all our cakes, coffee and Chelsea buns.”

Meanwhile, the bakery is also busy supplying online orders - with its artisan bakers having already made 11,000 mince pies by hand this festive season.

In October, Fitzbillies opened its new cake shop at 53 Trumpington Street in Cambridge, beside its original site. Its other bakery/ coffee shop can be found in Bridge Street.
