Where to eat on campus [STUDENT BLOG]

Students eating outside at Refresh

Now that you’re back on campus, we wanted to share some of the best places to refuel and hang out whilst you’re here, including some exciting new additions. We asked one of our Student Ambassadors, Ruby, to tell us about some of her favourites! If you’re looking for any of the places she mentions, here’s a handy campus map to point you in the right direction.

Underground

Location: Students Union

I love Starbucks so this is my other go-to place! They have a fantastic eating environment and it is very spacious. You can either eat inside on the couch while doing homework on your computer or talking to your friends or sit outside on a sunny day, watching the ducks and swans walking on the lawn. Great hangout place!

Another of my favourites! Refresh is located at Willow Court, super convenient for those who live on campus. The best thing about it is that it opens all the way till 10pm!
