Heaven Coffee Shop

HEAVEN Coffee Shop on Lord Street has become very popular with visitors to Wrexham, since Adam and Malgorzata took over the cafe in 2018.

Malgorzata used to work at the former Lord Street Cafe and enjoyed it so much, that they made the decision to take over and open the cafe doors as Heaven Coffee Shop. The cafe is near the arc sculpture landmark on Lord Street.

The statue portrays a miner and a steelworker on brick plinths, feet astride two steel arcs. They are at full stretch, each trying to bend the arc to meet at the top.

The statue represents the toil and collectiveness of manual work. With the closures of the mines, these self-sufficient communities had to find a new role in the world.

Wrexham has seen a lot of cafes and pubs open in the last few years and there are a lot of food and drink options in the area.

In 2021, the cafe was doing so well that they took over the lease of the shop next door to give Heaven more space.

Yes, you will always need a bit more space in heaven.

This heavenly coffee shop is really busy when we pop in through its pearly gates for a bite to eat. The owners are chatting and hugging a few returning locals, giving the place a close community feel.

Adam and Malgorzata have created a small, friendly vibe so that people feel comfortable.
