A popular cafe has launched a unique festive feature. With Christmas less than three weeks away the Continental Cafe on Maldon High Street has launched outdoor winter igloos to make your Christmas treats even more festive. The cosy igloo is complete with heaters and blankets to keep your warm whilst you enjoy your meal. Each slot lasts for 1hr 45minutes and costs £5 per head when booking. The cafe, which is renowned for its freshly make cakes and treats, is hoping to keep the igloo until Apirl. Owner Mike Strong said: It s been a rollercoaster few months, it s been a struggle for independent businesses and the high street.
