WHSmith has launched a new café format under its Smith’s Kitchen brand as it looks to expand its UK travel business. The first own-brand café is located at Princess Anne Hospital in Southampton.

Boasting 495 sq ft, the 26-seat café sells coffee, tea, iced drinks, along with hot breakfast choices, fresh pastries, and cakes. The opening follows the launch of the Smith Family Kitchen food-to-go range three months ago.
