A NEW workspace café has opened in Dorchester.

Debut Encore, at Brewery Square, opened on May 22, and features various communal workspaces with single and dual monitors and hi-speed wifi, with customers able to walk in, or pre-book a spot for half day or full day.

Half day and full day pre-bookings include access to unlimited barista-made coffee – with locally made snacks available to those booking for a full day.

Bradley Butterworth, co-founder at Debut Encore, said: “Flexible working is now a standard practice for many across Dorset, but comfortable workspaces where people can really focus outside the office can be difficult to come by.

“Debut Encore is designed to provide a warm, inviting atmosphere, with different amenities to help maximise productivity.

“The café will support a variety of needs – from people needing a suitable workspace for a few hours between travelling to meetings, to those wanting a change of scenery to their normal home working environment.

“It’s a space for everyone, so people can also just pop in for a coffee and slice of cake if they wish.

“We’re excited to become a new hub for remote workers and coffee lovers across the county.”

Tara Bailey, centre manager at Brewery Square, added: “It’s fantastic to broaden our offering at Brewery Square to appeal to more visitor needs.

“Debut Encore gives people an alternative workspace with everything they need in one place – reliable connectivity, delicious food and drink and above all else, a calming atmosphere in which they can really focus.”

A state-of-the-art podcast studio will also open at Debut Encore in the summer, offering a professional, high-quality recording environment for podcasters and content creators.
