Fresh food, rooted in Staffordshire.
At Thyme Kitchen we care about more than just good food – we care about the place we call home. That’s why we work with local suppliers, cut down on waste, and make sure there are plenty of fresh, seasonal and plant-based options on our menu.
Our café sits in old farm barns at Curborough, and over the years we’ve poured love into turning them into a bright, welcoming space for everyone to enjoy.
By looking after our team, our community and our countryside, we hope every visit leaves a little positive mark on Staffordshire.
Here at Thyme we pride ourselves on using the very best ingredients to create all of our brunches, bakes & coffees! Our trusted suppliers include local Butchers Rob Meehan’s situated in Lichfield. Our guests often ask about the source of our sausages & bacon and the answer never fails to surprise- just a short 5 minutes away on Dimbles lane! Another local supplier includes the amazing Packington Free Range who supply us with all of our eggs- and believe us we get through a lot!! We get bakes from Made By Mables situated along side ourselves at Curborough Countryside Center, these are a fan favourite, being served up at Curborough long before we even joined the Centre. The fabulous Silver Tree Bakery supply us with our Cinnamon Buns & Cruffins. Based in Sutton Coldfield, Silver Tree supply some of the biggest restaurants & cafes in the Midlands with fresh sourdough loaves, pastries & cakes. As well as these amazing local suppliers we also use Fresh View for our dry Ingredients and veggies, Fresh View are now changing over to Electric fleets which is another great step towards our sustainable goals.
Thyme Kitchen is a pandemic baby, born out of the need for owners Beth and Jon to find alternative ways to continue their food events business – Sauce Supper Club – during all the lockdowns. Having lots of experience in the Hospitality sector, opening up Thyme seemed like a slightly scary, but very exciting next step!
Thyme Kitchen initially began as a place to prepare top restaurant quality food ‘Dine at Home’ boxes in collaboration with Michelin Starred Chef, Tom Shepherd. We spent our initial months creating and delivering our Dine at Home boxes nationwide so everyone could enjoy some incredible food from the safety of their own homes.
After lots of decorating, dish creating & other various prep, it was finally time to open up as a Brunch cafe once the restrictions were lifted. Thyme quickly became somewhere for friends and families to begin socialising once again – from lone laptop workers to groups of mums, families, community groups, knitters, language groups, builders – everyone.
We have now been open for 5 amazing years where Thyme Kitchen has gone from strength to strength!
