A BRAND new café, which is hoping to take on the major coffee chains with its personal and independent charm, has opened in Durham City. One of the latest businesses to open in the region, Mr Bojangles, also known as Mr B, has thrown open its doors despite continued lockdown restrictions. The café, which is on Elvet Bridge, began trading just days before national restrictions were brought in, meaning it has had to stay takeaway-only since opening. Speaking to The Northern Echo, Justin Messenger, who founded Mr Bojangles, described how he and his partner, Gemma had always wanted to run a café.
