A new Italian coffee shop will ‘open soon’ at a former vegan café in an Oxfordshire town.

Work is currently taking place to transform Ribizli Café into an Italian coffee shop named 900 Café.

Ribizli Café closes its doors last December on St Mary Street in Wallingford after being there for seven years.

The new café will be opened by husband and wife duo Andrea and Gabriel Matei.

It is hoped they will open at the beginning of February, however, the pair have not yet confirmed an opening date.

The café is set to serve breakfast and lunch as well as bread and cakes.

On the menu, we are told there will be different sharing boards including cheese, meat or mixed platter, a soup of the day and fish or meat dishes.
