Commenting on the event, Mr Francois said: “The celebrations at the Laughing Pear Cafe was one of several Coronation events that I attended over the long Coronation weekend and it was great to see a local business in my constituency well and truly getting into the Coronation spirit.

“Tony and his team welcomed a large number of people over the long weekend who were keen to show their support for our new King and Queen.

“The Laughing Pear has always been a popular venue and I wish Tony and all his team the very best for the future.”
