THE owners of a café in Malvern have confirmed the opening date of their new site at a popular beauty spot.
Shona Kelly and Jon White, who own Faun, have announced that there are just a few days left until they will finally be welcoming customers through the doors of The Kettle Sings.
The pair took on the former tearoom on Jubilee Drive earlier this year, with the historic site having been closed since around January 2025.
Last month, Ms Kelly told the Gazette that the response to their announcement that they would be reopening The Kettle Sings had been “phenomenal”.

In a nod to its history and popularity as a tearoom, the site will be different from their existing bakery on Worcester Road and café at the Morgan Experience Centre.
Initially a workman’s cottage in the early 20th century, The Kettle Sings was enlarged to become a tearoom in 1928.
Faun’s newly unveiled menu shows that it will be offering brunch and lunch options, as well as treats, including toasted tea cakes, scones and various cakes.
There will also be a Sunday lunch and a dessert menu, as well as a bar.
In a post shared on the business’ social media pages, it announced that the new restaurant would be opening on Monday, October 19, and that customers could now book online.
“We are getting incredibly close now,” Ms Kelly said in a video shared on Faun’s social media pages.
“The road is reopening today, the electrician has finally turned up, the coffee machine is up and running and we’re having our first coffees today.
“All the equipment is in the kitchen, the tables and chairs have arrived, we’re doing the last bits of painting all around, there’s lots going on.”
