2. Spread – January 2023
Starting the year off strong, sandwich and coffee shop Spread opened in Adnitt Road on January 4. The venue started as a sell out and has continued to go from strength to strength. The business began as a hobby for owner Amy Adams and she has not looked back since opening her popular Abington store. Photo: Spread
3. Lawrence’s Coffeehouse – February 2023
Thanks to two passionate pub landlords, Lawrence’s made its big return to the town centre as an independent coffee shop in February. Formerly part of the Oliver Adams building in St Giles’ Street, it traded for decades before closing in 2017 – but now it is back for good and customers are loving it. Photo: Kirsty Edmonds
4. Burger Boi – March 2023
Burger Boi opened in Wellingborough Road on March 3 and proved so popular during the opening weekend that it had to close its doors four times to keep up with the demand. The Northampton store is one of 12 in the growing UK chain, which promises customers “the best burgers”. Photo: Kirsty Edmonds
