Island Line welcomed PO41 Coffee House to Ryde Esplanade station on 31^st July as the retailer opened to serve customers.  Station users, locals and holidaymakers are now able to purchase the wide variety of speciality coffees along with a range of island brewed teas, a delicious selection of homemade cakes, bacon sandwiches and a selection of picnic essentials.   The summer drinks range includes smoothies, frappes and affogatos.

Following the success of PO41’s first premises at Yarmouth, the retailer expanded to Cowes and now to Ryde Esplanade.  Situated within the reconfigured station building, PO41’s premises provide customers with views along to The Solent and historic pier.  The works to the station and bus interchange form part of a £10 million investment to enhance Ryde Pier and Ryde Esplanade.

PO41 join Jet Taxis and Southern Vectis as tenants within the station building with one further retail unit still to be let.

Erin Hucklesby of PO41 said, “we are delighted to be open to serve new customers and it is specifically lovely to see our loyal customers from Yarmouth and Cowes make the journey to visit us here in Ryde.”
