Coffee place of choice on campus. Staff are friendly, know you and are pleasant, always leaving space for marshmallows and then topping it up. Chips and gravy are fresh and not overpriced, kebabs are amazing, staff are patient and accommodating. Better than main cafe for food.

It was amazing! Food is at a good price and there is an adorable lady serving at the checkout who is so friendly you can't help but smile. Of all the places I've been to on campus, it's here I will be returning to

Great place to take a quick bite amidst the hectic schedules of the Uni. Falafel wrap is a personal favourite . Rina @ the console is an absolute delight of a human. Such a gentle and happy soul. Brightens anyone’s day with her greeting

Best cafe on campus by a long shot. Food is made fresh and very flavourful. Chicken burger tastes nice. The snack packs are the greatest deal available, delicious and the portion size definitely matches the price!
