The Common Room

You walk into The Common Room and immediately feel like you've stumbled into someone's front room—the kind of place where the regulars know your order and strangers become friends over a cup of decent coffee. It's housed in Neville Hall, a characterful building that's become a real hub for the city centre community, and the vibe is deliberately unpretentious. Whether you're here for a quiet morning with a notebook, catching up with mates, or popping in for one of their events, there's a genuine warmth that cuts through the usual café noise. It's the sort of spot where conversation matters more than Instagram-ability, and that's precisely why people keep coming back.
