Cafe Eighteen

I actually LOVE everything about this café! Café Eighteen is the Central Perk for myself and my friends!
It’s a cute little privately owned café on Olive Street just around the corner from The Bridges. I’ve been here quite a few times but I’ll just outline the relevant points!
Their chips (fries) are to die for! Thick cut and perfectly salted… seriously, you’re crazy if you add more salt and you’re crazy if you say there’s too much salt on them… perrrrfffeeecccttt.
Their hot drinks are lovely! Only ever tired their mocha but it didn’t need any sweetening and that’s a plus for me any day.
Their desserts/​cakes are delicccciiiouuuussss. And they’re quite unique haha. American Peanut Butter cake, Oreo Delight, etc but you still got the classics like Lemon Meringue and raspberry tarts.
Their paninis are ON POINT. Get their pesto and mozzarella panini, very yummy.
They also have small or large English breakfast (both regular and veggie).
The best part? I haven’t had anything at this café that was over £5. A filling panini with chips and coleslaw is £4.50. The mocha and hot drinks are £2.20 and under. I’ve heard their milkshakes are delicious and they’re only £2. You can do the Afternoon Tea deal (any cake with your choice of any tea or coffee) for £4.
Staff is extremely friendly, kind, and interactive. Also, 10% student discount :)
If you don’t try this place soon, I’m gonna be really upset… that’s not very convincing but please go try it :) you won’t be disappointed!
