Lord Mayor of Belfast Councillor Micky Murray welcomed his new neighbours in the Pearl Assurance building (Donegall Square East) on the opening day of Black Sheep Coffee’s first café in Ireland.
The new Belfast store will create approximately 14 full and part time jobs initially and represents an investment in the region of £1m by Bannon and Bannon Property Holdings in the future development of the brand throughout the island of Ireland.
The Belfast site franchise will be operated by Black Sheep Coffee-Ireland, part of Bannon and Bannon Property Holdings, which is behind some of the most successful hospitality venues in Northern Ireland including Common Market and 3Sheets in Belfast.
The 99-seater café will introduce a new experience for coffee lovers in the city by serving the first speciality-grade Robusta beans on the market.
