| The future home of Pressed LKLD. | |
Pressed LKLD Books & Coffee, a bookstore and coffee shop, will open later this summer in downtown Lakeland, Fla., the Ledger reported.
Owners Christina and Paul Needham have signed a lease for a space at 213 E. Bay St. and are eyeing an end-of-July opening. The general-interest bookstore will carry new books for children and adults, while the coffee shop will serve coffee from local coffee roasters Ethos Roasters and a variety of baked goods.
The space was previously home to a small business called Honeycomb Bread Bakers, which has since found a new spot in nearby Winter Haven. In an interesting twist, Honeycomb will provide baked goods for Pressed.
Christina Needham left a 10-year career in music education to pursue her dream of opening a bookstore and coffee shop of her own. She told the Ledger that while she didn't start looking for spaces to rent until last December, she's had the name for the store in mind since January 2018.
