A Leeds cafe owner has featured on BBC Breakfast to encourage young people to pursue entrepreneurship.
Adam Bricklebank, owner of Bricklebank’s Cafe & Bar in Chapel Allerton, appeared on the popular BBC show this morning . The 23-year-old opened the cafe in Stainbeck Lane last summer and it has quickly become a north Leeds-favourite. It even scooped Newcomer of the Year at the 2024 Oliver Awards. The BBC Breakfast feature focussed on the options young people have post-education - whether they should go to university, take on an apprenticeship or begin working.
I was always sitting in a classroom and I always thought, ‘this just isn’t for me, I want to go and get real-life experience from real-life people’. “That’s how I learn - from people. So that’s why I decided to take the plunge, drop out of sixth form, go work full-time and I’ve never looked back ever since.” BBC journalist Nina Warhust said Adam has had a “business-spirit from the very get-go” after hearing about his small tuck shop he ran as a kid.
