Winter 2021Busy Beans Coffee celebrates Good Food award
Independent coffee house Busy Beans Coffee has won a Good Food award.
The Littleborough business, run by Becky and Danny O’Neill, is the only local eatery to win a 2022 Good Food Blue Ribbon for Delicious Dishes this year after being voted for by members of the public.
The award-winning coffee house is one of 64 winners of the coveted award in the café category. Their coffee has previously won a Great Taste award, but the Good Food award is their first accolade for the business, much to their delight.
Becky said: “Thank you so much to all our customers who voted for us; it was so sweet of you all!
“We’re very excited and we’ll definitely enter again next year.”
Busy Beans originated as a mobile coffee bar frequenting local events, before the O’Neills branched out into their first coffee house on Victoria Street in November 2019.
