Research carried out by CALM suggests that 50% of Liverpool office workers felt that they had been affected by work related stress and that nearly half of those are spending 3 lunches or more at their desks! Brew, CALM and Voodou offered free treatments and information to customers as encouragement to try to spend at least 30 minutes away from the desk each day.

Following our hugely successful and well attended launch we are now officially open! Since we're the first tea bar in the UK then you may need to practice a little bit, so here you go: "one green tea latte to go please" "Scouser's Breakfast and toast to go, hold the butter" "One Earl Grey, one scone and some jam to stay" "Crikey you guys have some great tea" August 2008 - brew features in British GQ (September 2008 edition) This month GQ's Style Shrink can be found advising brew on how best to dress our staff. Clearly we don't want to be like those stuffy coffee chains, and so the UK's number one men's and fashion magazine was pretty much the only place to go for advice.
