The Bolthole, although not the best place to get food on campus is pretty essential as it's the…read morenearest place to the library to buy filtered coffee, tea, chocolate and provide a well earned break or continuation of procrastination. The food on offer is pretty limited really with either some calorie loving pizza slices or baguettes rammed with cheese aswell as some more expensive but healthier houmous and salad options. Soup is also served but in my experience can be hit and miss and I'm pretty sure they used Lamb Spam (if there is such a product) in one of the soups I've tried. Can get really rammed, though many people still seem to work in here, the Bolthole is simply alright, and due to it's proximity to the library and filtered coffee (which the meeting house doesn't have) will always be a popular choice.

It was a regular…read morepitstop for me during the dissertation run ups of my student days, and I'd often work down here with a regular supply of caffeine and the bustle of gossiping students keeping me awake! You'll find some food, but no meals - think jacket potatoes, pizza, pastries and baguettes. Some of the food is quite nice and it's all ok in price. As cafes go it's not great - looking pretty drab with the basic furnishings and lack of daylight. I guess they don't need to make much of an effort when people are gonna use the place out of convenience anyway, but even so one feels that with it being so popular the uni would do well to make it more impressive!

I'm not sure who I'd rather be in this situation, but I know whose going to be panicking in the morning of their finals...and it's not the Plato girl. That is of course presuming that these two characters aren't doing some obscure M.A. in Cheese Management or Dairy Studies? But it's not the everyday University scene that is the only reason I'm feeling nostalgic, but the general chilled atmosphere in this larger and open plan café. The café, which serves the needs of the cultural studies building is a bit more, well...cultured than the other café's on campus with some African style art work and a more stylish, soft orange and yellow interior, not to mention the trump card; Sofa's. The food too is more on the healthy, soupy and worldly kind of vibe with the vegetable Mousakka and Spinach and sundried tomato Pie quiche catching the eye on today's particular menu. If your doing cultural studies, which basically means you should be a hippy, your more likely to enjoy the atmosphere here than the utilitarian-esque Hums or Bolthole café's. Though of course there's no on the door hippy policy, so come here anyway if your not and got some time to burn.

The Dhaba cafe has become the unofficial home of all masters anthropology and global studies…read morestudents since the departmental offices relocated into Arts C. It's the kind of cafe that suits these disciplines well and is decorated with tribal styled pictures and has a number of chunky sofas. I really like this cafe and find that the staff who work here are more friendly than at some of the other locations on campus. There is also easy access to a number of benches outside, if you wanted to enjoy your coffee in the sun. Prices are the standard campus rate for your coffee or tea and I do think that these are a bit steep. This aside, they serve up a fairy wide range of food for a Uni cafe and you can get salads, various cakes alongside a good range of sandwiches and baguettes. They will also make a baguette to your specifications (if they have the ingredients in the fridges). There is also a computer here for accessing your library or emails, which can be handy if you need to check something but don't want to have to fight through the queues for the library PC's. To be fair, there are other places I would go to eat on campus, but it is a nice location to arrange to meet class mates for a post seminar chat and stays open late enough to be a good place to prepare for a presentation for late afternoon seminars, when the cafe has quietened down.

If you're still hungry, the cakes are also divine - home made and full of flavour. It's not really (bar a couple of small metal tables) and eat in place, due to the size, but grab some lunch here and head over to the Level or Preston Park to eat it - perfect.

Unsurprisingly in an affluent and middle class place like Lewes, Beckworths is able to offer a very good quality selection.

As for the sandwiches, you get a good range, with a lot of room for the more fussy eaters out there. I regularly buy the beef and horse radish, which I certainly would recommend.

But seriously, the *only* place for decent food on campus. Sadly The Coffee Workshop Creperie struggles to make enough money as the university wont advertise it at all. In fact, this is its third year in operation and it's unlikely to be open for much longer, as the university wants control over all of its cafes - so look forward to further homogenised *choice* on campus. If you get a chance to go to this place please do - if enough people know about it and use it then hopefully the university management can't shut it down!!

I'm actually sort of worried, as it's just across the road form my building...what's to stop me popping over every lunch time??! Will power, you say? No chance. Crepes are my absolute favourite. The galettes (savoury crepes) are made with wholemeal flour and fillings include cheese, mushrooms, spinach, caramelised onion, goats cheese, chicken, salmon...the list goes on, the choices are pretty much infinite! I sampled the 'Scallop special', which contained cheese, spinach, tomatoes and scallops. It cost £5, which is on the higher end of what you expect to pay for campus food, but it was massive, incredibly filling and delicious! Prices generally range from £3.50-£5. The sweet crepes also look delicious- they do all the usual suspects...lemon and sugar, nutella, maple syrup etc. As well as all this pancakey goodness, you can order other breakfast items such as French toast, waffles and eggs on toast. I'm gushing, I know I am. I'm just too excited about this discovery...campus dining revolutionized! My only complaint is that I left smelling like a giant pancake- the ventilation could definitely be improved!
