Customer Review Summary
Reviewers repeatedly single out the beef lasagna and toasted sandwiches, with the coffee close behind, praised as cheap yet very good and better value than campus options. Several note a student discount and reasonable prices, though one mentions the small seating area suits takeaway more than sitting in. One breakfast visit found their preferred dish absent from the menu but was won over anyway.

“The food is amazing and the people here are just the sweetest ones that you could come across in a lifetime. The attachment photo is just a little something that I’ve made to eat with the beautifully cooked beef lasagna. I have come to eat here for at least ten to fifteen timeshhhhhh, it’s just too delicious 😋”

“They have the best coffee and food around campus, stop wasting your money on overpriced coffee on campus where they even charge you extra for a cup! Coffee is amazing here and the food is very affordable and delicious. They also do a student discount! Highly recommended”

“Perfect place for a pitstop! A small cafe with a wide selection of menu items. Brilliant selection of toasted sandwiches. Small seating area, so predominantly for takeaway. Decent quality food at a very reasonable price.”
