Croffle Bank on Coventry High Street
Next to the Subway branch stands a Croffle Bank. 'Croffle' is a portmanteau word, combining elements of 'croissant' and 'waffle', and describes a dessert made from croissant pastry prepared in a waffle iron. It is popular in South Korea; the business also advertises Korean fried chicken and bingsu, a Korean iced dessert. It is one of the many businesses in central Coventry catering to students from East Asia studying at Coventry University.
Much of Coventry High Street survived the destruction of the second world war and the demolition enthusiasm of the city council. The Croffle Bank occupies no. 13, a very narrow, single-bay building with a 19th century facade featuring stucco incised to resemble stonework. In the 1980s this property was occupied by the Wedge, a cafe serving baked potatoes and fillings with a radical bookshop on the first floor. This closed around 1993 and was superseded by a Max Spielmann photo shop and various restaurant businesses.
