“But for now, I’m keeping a little mystery in the air, tantalisingly close yet just out of reach.

“What I can reveal is that our new baby will be nestled in the heart of St Andrews, bringing our brand of warmth, flavour, and community to a whole new town.”

Zoe, who previously spoke to The Courier about the challenges of juggling parenthood and running a business, also thanked customers, staff and her family for their support.
