The welfare of our customers, volunteers and staff is, as always our first priority. We are currently working extremely hard, so when you are able to visit us again, you can do this feeling assured that we have in place all the precautions to minimise the spread of Covid-19 and keep you safe.
We have rethought and reworked our coffee shop operations. Extensive health and safety guidelines have been prepared and implemented and our teams have been trained, so we can get back to welcoming you into the coffee shop again. We ask for your understanding and adherence to our new procedures:
- Entry and Exit to the coffee shop will be at the rear of the building only. There will be no access through the shop.
- It is mandatory to wear a face covering. Your face covering can only be removed when seated at your table and must be put back on when using the toilets.
- Hand sanitising stations will be provided at the entrances and in the coffee shop for you to use. We politely ask you use these before entering the HUB.
- Tables should be booked in advance by calling 01722 780998. We will only be able to serve those without reservations if there is a table available.
- We will be asking you to provide your contact details to support the NHS track and trace programe. These details will be filed securely retained for 21 days, after which they will be destroyed.
- The NHS Test and Trace QR code will be displayed for those who wish to use this service.
- To maintain the social distancing guidelines, we will be offering table service only. There will be no service at the bar.
- We will be using eco-friendly disposable plates and cups in order to reduce risk and maintain staff safety in the preparation areas.
- If customers wish to visit the shop, we require that you leave the Coffee Shop by the rear door and join any queue there might be at the front of the building. There will be no access directly from the Coffee Shop.
We look forward to being able, once again, to offer our Community this service, which we know has been missed.

The Chalke Valley Stores, known locally as the HUB, is situated in the United Reformed Church in the centre of the village of Broad Chalke in the heart of the beautiful Chalke Valley, officially designated as an Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty. It comprises a Shop, a Post Office and a Coffee Shop.
In addition to providing a service to the local villages, we also welcome visitors from all over the country – indeed increasingly from all over the world. Many come to the Chalke Valley to explore the area which is rich in history and has many places of great interest to visit as well as events to attend.
Tony Patel, the HUB’s manager is supported by Dawn, Sarah, our Team Leaders and our large team of volunteers whose involvement adds to a strong sense of community and helps make the experience of visiting the HUB extremely relaxed and the welcome genuinely warm and friendly. Wherever possible our products are sourced from small local growers and suppliers who are dedicated to the use of fresh ingredients and very often to traditional methods of production.

Residents of the Chalke Valley use the HUB for their essential shopping as we sell a wide variety of household goods, stationery, fresh meats and vegetables as well as drinks and take-away snacks. Others use it for a coffee in the morning, a light meal of homemade soup at lunch time or tea with fresh cakes and scones in the afternoon. In addition the Post Office provides a full range of postal, banking and foreign exchange services.

SHOP LOCAL:
As we approach this busy time of year with every one thinking about Christmas, please continue to shop locally and support both the shop and the café. We need your support to continue to serve the community.
CHRISTMAS AT THE SHOP:
Order your show stopping Christmas centre piece from Manor Farm Meats through the shop. Whole or Crowns of barn or free-range Turkeys, Geese and Duck are all available. Check the prices and place your order in the shop.
A range of Luxury foods and wines will be available and small hampers can be purchased for you to create the Christmas Gift for the “person who has everything”. Cheese Hampers can also be made up to order.
COFFEE SHOP:
The Coffee Shop was reopened successfully in late October. Sadly in light of the latest lockdown it has been forced to close again. However, a takeaway service of drinks and snacks continues to be available through the shop.
After 2 December, if regulations permit, our intention is to reopen the Coffee shop, with all the social distancing measures we have already put in place.
AWNING:
An awning has now been erected outside the shop to protect customers from the elements while queuing. Thank you to Nigel for helping us with this.
VOLUNTEERS:
Our thanks go to all the volunteers who give their time to ensure the Shop and Coffee shop are manned with such enthusiasm and cheerfulness. We are so pleased to see so many volunteers have returned since the summer.
Our thanks also go to Tony and the permanent staff for maintaining such a high level of service to us all in these difficult times.
WILTHSIRE LIFE:
The visit to the village by the Lord Lieutenant and the High Sheriff (our own Ashley Truluck) is well recorded in the latest edition of Wiltshire Life. Copies are available in the shop.
