Kerry’s parents George and Penny Kyriacou opened The Oxford Corner in 1971, but the building was sold to the Homes and Communities Agency to make way for housing development in Dolphin Square.

Kerry said: “We are slightly different, but we’ve called it The Oxford Café to pay tribute to our previous place.

“We serve breakfasts, fish and chips, lunches, sandwiches, paninis, scones and cakes and we’re still doing our signature knickerbocker glories and banana splits.

“We are happy to be up and running again and we’re looking forward to welcoming old and new customers.”
