About the Library Café
Library Café is the place to grab a Costa coffee and serves as an extended study and collaboration space for students at the University. You’ll find a large range of homemade sausage rolls and freshly made in-house sandwiches, ready to be heated or eaten cold, alongside flaky pastries and a selection of cakes, chocolate bars, and more.
Customers can eat in or take food away to enjoy in Library Square.
Alongside the tasty food, the café offers the full-range of Costa coffee. Customers can find their favourite lattés and frappés found on the high-street.
