The 27 year old, who has been running her cafe, Sophie, at Lendal Bridge, for three years will take over Dyls at the end of the month.
As revealed in The Press online yesterday, Jan Dyl announced on social media that he was selling his quirky cafe-bar in the former historic motor house of Skeldergate Bridge at Tower Gardens after 12 years at the helm.
He will be hosting a big party on Sunday April 21 at Dyls from 4pm with free food, live music and serving drinks.
Jan, 31, told The Press he was sad to leave the bar behind but was ready for a new challenge - yet to be revealed. He did confirm that it would be outside the hospitality sector.
