We are a collective of likeminded people, committed to making our visitors feel utterly at ease when they visit the Find.
DAVID ORME
A fan of traditional values, David can also be enticed by shiny newfanglements. An epicurean and polymath, he has travelled widely around the globe – sometimes in style, at other times with a simple backpack. He has worked for big business, in design and horticulture, and brought up two daughters.
In establishing The Find, David’s passion for life’s pleasures – exceptional food, great company and memorable experiences – have all come together. David remains The Find’s driving force, leading a team of loyal and likeminded staff.

Seeing our regular customers AND welcoming new visitors.
GINO
Bringing the spirit of Italy to The Find, Gino joined as a barista. He says the easy vibe at the café feels just like being at home. Of all the dishes on the menu, the smashed avocado is a firm favourite.
What do you love most about living in England?
The multiculturalism. I do miss the Italian weather and food though!
IAIN
A talent in the kitchen, Iain says The Find is the best working environment he’s experienced in a long while. He delights in creating great food from scratch and is responsible for many of our best loved dishes, including the pulled lamb flatbreads and falafel flatbreads.

Despite the looks and tattoos, I’m a qualified pastry chef. No one ever expects that!

I once travelled to Vienna just to go to the opera.
SOPHIE
Sophie is a Psychology graduate, so she must find our variety of guests fascinating. When she’s not working, she indulges her creativity through Dungeons and Dragons, model making, photography and watching movies.
