Reader letter: ‘May I plead for Chichester Cathedral to reopen café’
Through our local newspaper may I publicly plead for the cathedral to reopen its tea rooms please?
When the weather is good there is nowhere better in Chichester to enjoy a drink and a cake.

Further enjoyment was added when the local wildlife people put up their viewing tent for us to see the peregrine falcon’s nest.
I don’t know why it closed. If supplying hot food, etc, was too costly and non-profitable I’m sure people would be just as happy with a simple tea room.
It’s a tragic waste of a brilliant little part of the cathedral and where the church can welcome people.
Maybe someone from the diocese would care to comment?
