8 years ago! šŸ—“ļø

A few of the lads, a backpack, a cardboard sign, and a mission that felt far bigger than ourselves.

We set off to hitchhike across the country, relying entirely on the kindness of strangers, all to raise awareness and support for mental health in our community here in Pembrokeshire.

Looking back now, it’s hard to believe just how much has changed.

From those early days and big dreams, to opening our doors on Dew Street. From serving coffee out of our van down at Fresh, to taking the leap and moving to Bridge Street. Then came our second home in Tenby. Every step has brought new challenges, unforgettable memories, and incredible people into our lives.

What started as an idea has grown into something we could never have imagined. Not because of us, but because of the community that got behind it, supported it, and helped shape it into what it is today.

Eight years later, we’re still here. Still serving coffee. Still backing our community. Still fighting to make mental health support more accessible for the people who need it.

It’s been a whirlwind, and we’d do it all again in a heartbeat.

So here’s a little trip down memory lane… and maybe a reminder that some of the best adventures start with a simple idea and the courage to take the first step.

Now the question is… who thinks it’s time for another hitchhike? šŸ‘€šŸš—ā˜•ļø

After the news about the cruise ship docking outside our Bridge Street store got out, it seems every man and his dog has been battening down the hatches, hoisting the sails and braving the wild Pembrokeshire seas to make their way in for a coffee. ā˜•šŸš¢

Despite the challenging conditions, we’ve seen brave sailors, experienced rowers, and the occasional castaway successfully navigate the waters outside the shop. Rumours of people arriving by canoe, raft and even attempting the Total Wipeout big red balls challenge remain unconfirmed… for now. šŸ‘€

We’re also hearing whispers that Pembrokeshire County Council are considering making the water feature outside our Bridge Street store a permanent fixture. Discussions are apparently underway about introducing pedalos, harbour fees and a daily tide timetable.

Until then, our doors remain open, the coffee is hot, and unlike the weather, our welcome is guaranteed to be warm.

See you at the docks. āš“ā˜•

Today, a truly remarkable man celebrates an incredible milestone…

Ted turns 90! šŸŽ‰

For the last seven years, Ted has been part of the fabric of our community. Since the very beginning, every Monday, Wednesday and Friday, after the gym, Ted and the boys have made their way in for an extra hot cappuccino, good company, and plenty of conversation.

Over the years, we’ve been captivated by Ted’s stories, and so have countless customers lucky enough to be sitting nearby. From his days as a fine jewellery designer, to sailing around the world and raising his family on a boat, Ted has lived a life full of adventure, courage, and unforgettable experiences.

Many of you will recognise Ted by his famous trike. At the age of 85, Ted cycled from John O’Groats to Land’s End completely alone and unsupported, raising money for our cause along the way. He crossed the finish line on his 86th birthday, a feat that most people, regardless of age, would never even contemplate.

But what makes Ted so special isn’t just what he’s done. It’s his kindness, his positivity, his curiosity, and the way he can brighten someone’s day with a simple conversation.

If you see Ted in the shop or out and about, stop and say hello. Spend a few minutes listening to his stories. You’ll leave richer for it.

Ted, you are an inspiration to all of us. Thank you for your friendship, your support, and for showing us that age is no barrier to living a life full of purpose and adventure.

Happy 90th Birthday to one of the greatest legends we’ve ever had the privilege to know. ā¤ļø

Motherhood can be amazing, but it can also feel overwhelming.

From pregnancy, to sleepless nights, to suddenly having a tiny human relying on you for everything, sometimes what you really need is a coffee, a catch-up, and a conversation with another adult.

That’s why we’re launching our Mum & Baby Club šŸ’›

A relaxed space for mums to get out of the house, meet other mums, unwind for a couple of hours, and feel a little more like themselves again.

As a small gesture of appreciation, all mums with babies under 2 years old will receive a free slice of cake with any coffee purchase ā˜•šŸ°

šŸ“ Tenby, Mondays, 10:00 - 12:00
šŸ“ Haverfordwest, Thursdays, 10:00 - 12:00

No pressure, no expectations, just good coffee, good people, and a welcoming space for mums who deserve it.

A big old happy birthday to Mr Excel himself, Mikey boy!!

Many of you won’t have met Mike, believe us, it’s hard enough for us to pin him down for 5 mins! However, Mike is an integral part of GTBAL, without him, we simply wouldn’t be here doing what we do. We should also thank Chloe, his lovely wife for allowing him the evenings and anti social hours he puts in to keep us going, so thanks chlo!!

Love you Mikey boy, have a good one!

A huge thank you to everyone who came along to our golf day yesterday, what a day it was.

It’s almost a joke how much of a good craic these days have become, everyone out enjoying themselves, having a laugh, couple of beers, some good golf, some bad golf and all for a fantastic reason. We cannot express how grateful we are to everyone who makes the effort, everyone who helps out and all of you who share, enter or donate towards our fundraisers.

Thank you to Milford golf club for having us, course was in great condition, thank you to for donating the beers, thank you to , Hannah and girls for being our on course beer delivery girls, thank you to for coming along and catching some snippets of the day and thank you so much to all of our players and sponsors, without the generosity you guys show us, we wouldn’t be able to help as many people through their struggles as we do.

If anyone has any photos or videos, please send them over!

Who’s coming next year??

A massive happy birthday to Emily Wally Walters! šŸŠ

Emily is the behind the scenes driving force behind GTBAL, the catalyst to making sure things are done, mainly for Ryan and Greg, but a powerhouse nonetheless!

Em, we’ve watched you come in from early doors when you and Greg first got together, we’ve watched you bloom and blossom into a wife and a mother to Greg and baby Rita, it’s been fantastic to be witness to, and it’s an honour to have you as part of this journey with us. Lots of blood, sweat and tears have been spilt and shared by us, and we wouldn’t change it for the world.

You make this team complete and we love you!

Have a great last day or 2 on holiday and see you for some golf and bevvys on Friday!

After a little longer wait than we first anticipated, we’ve joined the 21st century and we’re now ONLINE!

Thank you all for being patient with us, it’s been tiring believe us šŸ˜‚ but we are finally connected up and able to offer you our wifi. Good news, especially with Tenby’s woeful internet connection and phone signal.

Whether you’re looking to sit and do some online retail therapy or you need to get out of the house and crack on with some work on your laptop, then we can help!

Just pop in and ask the girls for the password!
