Window
In the early hours of Saturday morning (18th December) the large front window
at the cafe was smashed and the distinct divers helmet that had been with us for
over 5 years was stolen. It had been a focal point in the cafe and will be
sorely missed. It appears this callous act may have been planned and two males
were spotted acting suspiciously outside the cafe at approximately 5am on
Saturday morning. If anyone has any information whatsoever or you may have been
offered a 1920's sold style brass divers helmet then please contact
Greenock Police Station on 01475 492 500.
We are still open as usual.
