    that place is the weirdest cafe earlier. Cheap enough for a wrap or whatever but everything else is a rip off. And the coke tastes really really weird.

    That would be the same break -- as far as I know -- most people are currently on this week. As per the 2008/2009 academic calendar: "INTER - SEMESTER BREAK Mon 2 Feb - Fri 6 Feb."

    The library cafe is actually a life-saver for me.
    I live on the opposite side of the city so it usually feeds me.
    Nowhere else except the Zest cafe opens as late.
    And I am partial to their chicken pie. Granted a lot of it is overpriced but still it provides a valuable service.
    The fact that it doesn't do starbucks coffee also pleases me.

    It staying open late is the only reason I go there. The service is really bad too

    In a lot of cafés they would be a similar price.
    I paid 3.50 for a muffin in the café in the botanic gardens a few weeks ago.
