We parked on Hoadley Court as directed - not the prettiest entrance ever - but persist to building P where another world awaits. The building itself is modern and architecturally designed, and Reading Room Cafe is a most welcoming sight! The space is compact and wood panelled with plenty of natural light from huge windows looking out to the university grounds. My attendance today was by invite to media and bloggers as a preview to the reading rooms upcoming 'Pop up for Charity' weekends only, for 8 weeks (April and May 2012). Service was attentive and snappy, coffee was perfect, food was prompt and delicious... what can I say. If you are in the area over the weekends over the next few weeks pop in! The cafe is open 'as normal' during the week catering to uni staff and students with sandwiches and baked goodies - as opposed to the sit down weekend menu of hot breakfasts (including Sweetcorn and Pumpkin Fritters with avocado, photographed below) and lunches. High tea also available (three tiered stands pictured below) for a special treat!
20% of proceeds over the 8 weekends will be donated to local charities.
