## Summary

The Barnsley Metropolitan Borough Council is currently engaged in a tendering process for a lease agreement for the Experience Barnsley Cafe, a pivotal service located in Barnsley, Yorkshire and the Humber. The procurement, classified under the category of food, beverages, and related products, is being conducted via an open procedure, with a total contract value of £30,000. The tender period closes on 1st October 2018, and the contract is set to commence on 1st November 2018, running until 30th November 2020.

This tender presents an excellent opportunity for businesses within the food service, catering, and hospitality sectors, particularly those that are small to medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) and voluntary or community sector enterprises (VCSEs). Companies with experience in managing cafes or restaurants and offering high-quality customer service would be particularly well-suited to compete. The success of this venture could enhance the visitor experience at the Experience Barnsley, creating a dynamic atmosphere for both local residents and tourists alike.

## Notice

At the end of June 2013, Experience Barnsley, a state-of-the-art museum and discovery centre, opened in the Town Hall, Barnsley. There has been a fantastic response to the first museum devoted to Barnsley's stories and thousands of local people contributed towards its creation. It appeals to a wide-range of audiences, across generations, and is a special place to head to on trips to the town. It has been funded by the Heritage Lottery Fund and supported by the European Regional Development Fund. An excellent cafe is an important part of this visitor offer. A large space in the most prominent part of the building, to fit approximately 40 covers, has been carefully renovated to provide this. It is beautifully and naturally lit with large windows to the south elevation of the building, with double-doors opening onto the main reception area through which the majority of visitors will pass. The cafe has the potential to be a lively space, where visitors of all ages and in different-sized groups get drinks, snacks and light-meals. It is an integral part of the visitor experience and also a daily place to spend time for Town Hall users too. Please visit https://www.yortender.co.uk for more information.
