The team from the South Street Coffee on Southchurch Road will be taking the reigns of the revamp, with the former Brickhouse joining as the South Street Bar and Coffee Lounge.

Before being transformed into the Brickhouse, the venue in London Road was home to Mangetout, East Coast Special and La Tasca.
"The revamp has been quite smooth, we have previous experience from our other venues and this is more about revitalisation than starting from scratch.
"We are not ripping everything out and starting again, we want to make it better and reach its full potential.
