""misleading and inaccurate claims""
""Why were leases granted to a provider who has no experience of managing community-orientated cafes and whose expertise is in providing high-end, expensive brunches to a transitory clientele?""
""It's important to be clear about the facts. These cafes are not closing.""
The City of London Corporation selected Daisy Green to operate four cafes at Golders Hill Park, Parliament Hill, Queen's Park and Parliament Hill Lido following a retendering process of five sites. More than 15,000 people signed a petition to retain the existing operators, and a campaign backed by Benedict Cumberbatch and James McAvoy opposed the change. Campaigners raised concerns that Daisy Green lacks experience managing community-oriented cafes and focuses on high-end brunch offerings. The corporation stated the retendering aimed to deliver a high-quality visitor experience, allow future investment, and address previously unsustainable short-term tenancies. A decision on the fifth site at Highgate Wood remains pending.
