A cafe serving local produce has opened in Dundee’s Olympia Leisure Centre.

The new venture has been launched jointly by Active Dundee (part of Leisure & Culture Dundee) and The Wee Coffee Cabin.

The first customers were served on Friday.

The Wee Coffee Cabin@Olympia aims to bring a “fresh and exciting food and drink offering to Olympia”.

It will serve snacks, home-cooked meals and nutritious options for swimmers and gym goers.

‘High-quality local ingredients’ at Dundee’s Olympia Centre cafe

A spokesperson says the menu is built around high-quality local and Scottish ingredients, with Dundee’s Scotts Brothers Butchers providing some ingredients.

They added: “The Wee Coffee Cabin has partnered with Henry’s Coffee, a local supplier who provide beans from a Dundee-based roastery, to ensure every cup is brewed to perfection.”

There will also be exclusive monthly member-only specials.

Scott Urquhart, head of leisure at Active Dundee, said: “As part of our commitment to enhancing the experience at Olympia, we are excited to welcome The Wee Coffee Cabin.
