🇫🇷 A little piece of French country living…

At At The Nook, every piece is lovingly collected with one thing in mind: helping you create that wonderfully relaxed, timeworn French country look.

Think rustic timber, faded paint, dried lavender, old mirrors, vintage artefacts, pretty paintings and those quirky little finds that somehow make a room.

The secret? Build the vignette.

Layer something old with something beautiful. Add texture, flowers, a battered piece of wood, an ornate frame… and suddenly a forgotten corner has a story of its own.

And now there’s even more At The Nook to discover! 🤍

A new mini pop-up shop has arrived on the ground floor at The Emporium, giving you another little corner to rummage, browse and find inspiration.

And to celebrate…

✨ 10% OFF EVERYTHING AT THE NOOK ✨

So if French country style makes your heart beat a little faster, now might be a very good time for a wander around.

Come and find that one piece that starts your next vignette… 🇫🇷🌿

🧸 Every teddy has a story…

Some are pristine and collectable.
Some have uniforms and personalities.
And some are a little threadbare, slightly wonky and quite clearly very well loved.

There’s something rather special about an old teddy bear. The rubbed-away fur, a repaired paw or a slightly crooked nose can tell you that this wasn’t simply a toy — it was once somebody’s treasured companion.

At The Emporium, two of our independent traders — Steve’s Collectibles and Forged Emporium — have gathered together quite an extraordinary assortment of bears.

From vintage Chad Valley bears and nostalgic old teddies to colourful modern collectables and Ty Beanie Babies, there are bears for serious collectors, bears that take you straight back to childhood…and perhaps one or two simply waiting for their next home.

And we think the slightly battered ones might just be our favourites. ❤️

Come and meet the bears at The Emporium, Yeovi

Introducing The Cocktail Safari at The Emporium Café

For months we’ve been quietly working on something completely new behind the scenes… and tomorrow evening our very first explorers will set off on their adventure.

The Cocktail Safari isn’t simply a cocktail evening. It’s a two- hour immersive experience inspired by the Grand Tour of Mr Wyndham, whose travels across Europe and beyond helped shape the beautiful Wyndham House that we now call home.

On arrival you’ll be welcomed with a complimentary Explorer’s Welcome Cocktail before receiving your own Explorer’s Passport and setting off on a guided expedition through our beautifully themed zones.

Along the way you’ll discover the stories behind each destination, enjoy live cocktail demonstrations, sample three signature cocktails, collect destination stamps and enjoy themed nibbles inspired by the places you visit.

Every zone has its own story. Every cocktail has its own inspiration. Every explorer leaves with memories to take home.

Collect all eleven destination stamps over future Cocktail Safaris and you’ll unlock The Wyndham Reserve – our complimentary signature cocktail, reserved exclusively for explorers who complete the Grand Tour.

We’re almost fully booked for tomorrow night’s inaugural expedition. We may be able to squeeze in two or three more explorers, but if you miss out, don’t worry—we’ll be announcing future expedition dates very soon.

Your expedition includes:
•Explorer’s Welcome Cocktail
•Themed nibbles at each destination
•Explorer’s Passport
•Live cocktail demonstrations
•Three signature cocktails
•Guided storytelling through our themed zones
•Destination stamps to collect towards The Wyndham Reserve

Keep an eye on our page… the next expedition dates will be announced very soon.

The adventure has begun. Who will join us?

🎬 Lights, camera… The Emporium!

Today was one of those days that reminds us just how special this place is.

We were delighted to welcome the BBC One Escape to the Country film crew, who chose The Emporium as one of their filming locations during a day of shooting in Yeovil.

From mid morning, our café became their base for the day – somewhere to plan, recharge over coffee, and capture some wonderful footage. It was lovely watching the team at work, and even lovelier hearing how much they enjoyed exploring our three floors of independent shops and spending time in the café.

There’s always a little buzz when television comes calling, but what made today memorable was hearing genuine compliments about what we’ve created here. It makes us incredibly proud.

A huge thank you to the production team for spending the day with us. We can’t wait to see the finished programme when it airs!

Have you ever spotted The Emporium on television? 📺

Ooooh how wonderfully indulgent!

✨ Introducing Pudding Club at The Emporium Café ✨

Join us for an evening dedicated to the art of dessert.

Your experience begins with a beautifully crafted welcome drink, followed by a seasonal savoury small plate before we present the highlight of the evening – four exquisite homemade puddings, each carefully created to delight and indulge.

Whether you’re celebrating a special occasion or simply believe dessert deserves to be the main event, Pudding Club promises an unforgettable evening of delicious flavours in the cosy surroundings of The Emporium Café.

✨ Spaces are limited, so reserve your place today. We look forward to welcoming you.

Sometimes the photographer chooses the camera… and sometimes the camera chooses the mood.

We were absolutely delighted when our talented trader Photography by Ruth shared these beautiful images of The Emporium Café.

Ruth has recently expanded into her very own photography studio on our second floor, and to capture these photographs she reached for something rather special – a classic 1980s Canon film camera.

The result? Rich colours, soft grain and a wonderfully nostalgic feel that perfectly complements the cosy corners, jungle-inspired décor and relaxed atmosphere of our café.

Professional photography really does make all the difference. It’s not just about taking a picture; it’s about capturing a feeling. We think Ruth has done exactly that.

If you’re looking for a photographer who sees the beauty in the details, do pop upstairs and say hello. Whether it’s family portraits, business photography, creative projects or something completely unique, you’ll be in very talented hands.

Thank you, Ruth, for seeing The Emporium Cafe through a different lens. We absolutely love these.
