Common Grounds

NB: no cafe 27th September

Thornhill’s “Common Grounds” community cafe was launched as a trial over three months in the Spring of 2025 and, having had a great response, is continuing.

The cafe will continue to operate in Thornhill’s Community Hall from 10.30 to 12.30 on the last Saturday of the month, although these times may change when we get into winter months and cake is complemented with some warming soup and a scone.

Gluten-free, vegan and dairy-free dietary options are available and children, hobbies and chat remain very welcome.  There will be toys on hand but Common Grounds is unable to offer supervision. 

Payment is by donation of a suggested £3 for adults and children are free. Any profits made by the cafe will go back into running the café and any surplus to village projects.

The cafe now has a Steering Group to do all the background admin, leaving the amazing local bakers to pitch in with a bake or help run a Saturday as and when they are able.  

With free parking right outside (disabled spaces available), a covered, secure bike rack, e-bike charging and even EV charging across the road, Common Grounds looks forward to welcoming villagers and folk visiting from further afield.
