Food & Drink

The Coffee Shop

Open daily between 9:30-5:00 (closed Wednesdays in term-time).

Our coffee shop is the perfect place to sit back, relax and take a second for yourself while enjoying stunning views over the Ouseburn.  

Serving up a selection of seasonal paninis and sourdough sandwiches in addition to soup of the day and salads using local suppliers; there’s plenty on offer to keep grown-ups happy! 

For youngsters we have a selection of little lunchboxes, snacks and Joe Delluci gelato – not to mention we have a range of literary-themed milkshakes to tuck into such as ‘Lola Really Likes Pink Milk’, ‘George’s Marvellous Medicine’ and ‘The Gruffalo’s Shake’. 

And – of course, it wouldn’t be a coffee shop without caffeine! Our brilliant baristas serve up Ringtons beans in almost every combination.  

Outside of the coffee shop and bookshop, we ask that hot drinks are not to be carried around our building for the safety of others. As a venue, we follow a ‘may contain’ rule and therefore cannot guarantee nut-free allergens. 

Our coffee shop and bookshop is a dog-friendly space, but we ask that all furry friends are well-behaved and always remain on their lead. Please be aware our opening and closing times may be subject to change depending on venue operations.
