Felicity Reviews 2 month ago

"This is a great establishment providing food and a safe social study space to hungry students! The meal deal is reasonably priced considering it’s not a big chain, and the premium meal deal (£1 extra) lets you include a hot main. Options were all healthy and delicious looking. Very clean, calm atmosphere. There is a mix of large tables and 2 person tables. There’s lots of light and you don’t need your library card to get in."

"One of my favourite regular spots for university work. Busy mid day but good ambience around 9-11am and 3-4pm. Only let down is that it isn't open weekends."
