Relaxing spaces
With creativity, taking a break can often be a more productive option. Whether it’s for quiet refocus or a sit-down meal, we have a number of comfortable spaces available. For those who don’t believe in that nonsense and prefer to plough through, all our staff are barista trained and serve coffee, fresh from our friends at the Heart & Graft Coffee Roastery.
