It is a great place to sit (comfy seats) and drink coffee, while doing some work and it does not make you feel self- conscious for sitting alone like many places. It is a little over priced, but as are all good coffee shops.

They do the usual sandwiches, panini's, cakes & pastries and a good selection of decent coffee's. The prices aren't cheap as you expect from these coffee chains but the coffee is nice and yummy! The staff are always really friendly and are good at cleaning up the tables.

I actually LOVE everything about this cafe! Cafe Eighteen is the Central Perk for myself and my…read morefriends! It's a cute little privately owned cafe on Olive Street just around the corner from The Bridges. I've been here quite a few times but I'll just outline the relevant points! Their chips (fries) are to die for! Thick cut and perfectly salted....seriously, you're crazy if you add more salt and you're crazy if you say there's too much salt on them......perrrrfffeeecccttt. Their hot drinks are lovely! Only ever tired their mocha but it didn't need any sweetening and that's a plus for me any day. Their desserts/cakes are delicccciiiouuuussss. And they're quite unique haha. American Peanut Butter cake, Oreo Delight, etc but you still got the classics like Lemon Meringue and raspberry tarts. Their paninis are ON POINT. Get their pesto and mozzarella panini, very yummy. They also have small or large English breakfast (both regular and veggie). The best part? I haven't had anything at this cafe that was over £5. A filling panini with chips and coleslaw is £4.50. The mocha and hot drinks are £2.20 and under. I've heard their milkshakes are delicious and they're only £2. You can do the Afternoon Tea deal (any cake with your choice of any tea or coffee) for £4. Staff is extremely friendly, kind, and interactive. Also, 10% student discount :) If you don't try this place soon, I'm gonna be really upset.....that's not very convincing but please go try it :) you won't be disappointed!

You can always find a seat in this place as it is not too popular. They have currently got an offer on hotdogs, which is great for hotdog fans. I am never eaten food in here, so I cannot judge, but the hot chocolate is amazing. It is situated in The Bridges, so you do not have to brave the cold for a hot drink.

The Good Apple Cafe is a really cute small cafe and I think it actually just opened recently! As soon as you walk in, you're greeted the smiles of friendly staff members and a cozy setting of chairs and tables. Here's the big plus....this cafe is vegan! Have you ever tried vegan rocky road? Gluten-free Orange and passion fruit cupcakes? It's literally a world of wonders in there! Not only that, you've got yourself a vast selection of hot drinks, including an even greater selection of teas (no seriously there's actually a lot!). If you're hungry, that's it's own story. Lots of choices ranging from bagels to wraps and even yummy sweets! I'm gonna be super boring and just tell you right away I had a cappuccino despite all these choices lol! Other selections included a rooibos creme caramel tea (you read that correctly.....I've never smelled something so beautiful), regular black tea, matcha latte (delicious!), and a grilled cheese sandwich with a side of a latte. Everyone loved their choices! Prices are very reasonable: drinks are all under £2-3 depending on your selection and food is anywhere between £3-6! Free wifi for all you Internet lovers and they have a stack of magazines and novels in the corner in case you just wanna zone out for a bit. On our way out we managed to catch the barista taking freshly baked red velvet cupcakes out of the oven.....nothing better than seeing your food made fresh! Definitely recommend:) Ps the tea comes in cute little blue teapots and I don't know why I loved them so much but I hope you do too :)
