The bosses of a city cafe have revealed they have taken on the vacant premises next door.

The Bicycle Shop sits at the heart of the Norwich Lanes in St Benedicts Street, beside a now-empty unit which was once filled by Cooke's Pianos.

The family-run business served the musicians of Norwich for 134 years until its closure in 2021.

The Bicycle Shop team will honour the building's history by renaming it The Old Piano Shop.

Rob Howe, the cafe's founder, used a similar tactic when naming The Bicycle Shop back in 2009.

He missed the bike shop that once filled the spot and used the thought as inspiration.

It is not yet known what The Old Piano Shop will be, but in a post shared to Instagram, a spokesman for the cafe wrote: "The Bicycle Shop has adopted the old piano shop next door.

"We’re now seeking interesting people to open interesting things, either permanently (upstairs), or temporarily (downstairs)."

They also asked people to spread the word and email oldpianoshop@gmail.com if interested.
