This "internet cafe" replaces an old address further down St Vincent Street, but sadly the place has not improved since the move.
It isn't right to call it a "cafe" given that the only food or drink availible is from a slow vending machine. I have only really used the place for Internet access and not tried any of the other services on offer, though I don't expect they are much better.
The prices - £2 an hour, £5 for an all day pass - are to be expected, but you would also expect at the very least computers that had working mouses and keys that weren't stuck down. Plus the seats are uncomfortable and the computer screens are very far forward - a health and safety disaster.
But the very worst thing about this place is the sorts of people who you have to share company with. I've had them all sitting next to me - smelly jakeys, people bellowing down mobile phones, weirdos who talk to themselves, neds listening to very loud rave music through their headphones, you name it. Somebody at work even told me they had to share company with a person who happily surfed through hardcore pornography.
I've only used this place because there isn't much of a choice if you urgently require internet access and there's nowhere else to go. Avoid like the plague. read more
