Caffè Nero

You're in the heart of the city centre, just off the main drag, where Caffè Nero does what it does best—consistent coffee without pretension. It's the sort of place you duck into between meetings or before heading to the Corn Exchange, grabbing a flat white that won't disappoint and a pastry that'll do the job. The Cityside location gives you that modern office-block vibe, all sleek and functional, with enough seating to actually get work done if you need to. Nothing fancy, but that's precisely why it works.
