Owner Alison Shakeshaft and her employees are now looking to find out more about the building, which was once a chemist called Jeyes.
A cafe spokeswoman said: "When we took on the building and discovered the writing we decided we wanted to unveil the history of this beautiful building.
“Restoring the windows was a labour of love and we are delighted with the results and the memories it has surfaced for many residents of Market Harborough.
