Co-owners Angus and Sally Baldwin relocated the business into a facility that has been designed with the Orange climate in mind.
The building at 52 Lords Place also includes a separate Black Bull Cafe and Mrs Baldwin, a clinical nutritionist, has opened Homefront Nutrition at the front of the building.
A hot-yoga studio will also open in August or September.
Mr Baldwin said they gutted and refurbished the building, which backs onto Anson Street School, and were planning to open it in April but the forced closure brought on by coronavirus gave them more time to put in the finishing touches.
Big win for Spilt Milk
The team from the Spilt Milk Bar is celebrating a silver award win in the brand identity category of the FAB Awards, and international brand competition.
Spilt Milk co-owner Andrew 'Hammo' Hamilton described it as the Oscars of the branding industry with 50,000 entries from 50 countries.
"We are really chuffed," Mr Hamilton said.
He said the bar opened in September last year and the branding was developed by Australian Damon Gore from New York-based Safari Sundays.
Mr Hamilton said the business has also been doing well with home-deliveries through the coronavirus shutdown and in the past two weekends it was on par with when it opened.
Cellar door opening
Tamburlaine Organic Wines is opening its cellar door for hosted wine tastings in the renovated and historic Millthorpe General Store in Pym Street on Thursday.
The opening follows the winemakers' purchase of the former Cumulus winery facility at Cudal where it processed its 2020 fruit.
Tamburlaine managing director Mark Davidson said Tamburlaine has provided cellar door service through its Hunter Valley operation for 35 years.
"The cellar door opening in the region is not before time given our involvement with Orange Region winemaking going back to 1989 and given the substantial vineyard holdings at Borenore and Belgravia," Mr Davidson said.
The cellar door will initially be open Thursday through to Sunday.
