Ironically for The Platform - they need to raise their game! I came here for a work Christmas party in December 2019 and it wasn't an amazing experience. The best beer they have is Budweiser. Yeah, it's that bad. There are no taps and not an ale in sight. With two breweries within walking distance (Phipps NBC & Maule) there's little excuse to have such a poor offering. Food-wise, it was hardly better. They did at least have some vegan options but everything was cold and kind of bland. There were some dressed noodles that were okish. Oh, and the potato wedges came and late and undercooked. Yikes. Overall, you can do better than this place in the town centre. It's certainly spacious if that's your main criterion.

The cafe is a really nice environment for a quiet business meeting. There are power outlets available, free WiFi and indoor/outdoor seating areas. They do a really good mocha in comparison with other local coffees in town (chains included).

The good place for party 🎉 particularly students, lot of events during every week. Even it is Monday but quite crowded with "Milk it Monday". The price of drinks around 5 pounds. There is a smoking area outside and at the rooftop as well.

Tidy cafe, polite staff, I come here every Monday and Tuesday for a course and chill in the cafe on breaks. The food is fantastic, cookies are to die for! X free WiFi and comfy seating

Good venue. Drink prices kept changing. I liked the fact they have plastic bottles and plastic glasses. The large mirror ball messes with your head, making you feel odd.

Fantastic venue but who wants to go to a student club. No one!

Brilliant afternoon spent watching live bands perform, great atmosphere and friendly staff too.

Lovely venue but broken locks on gents toilet doors need fixing lol.

The security guy .. he just came and shouted to one of my friend ..because he was wearing a hat.. like.. instead of saying nicely .. the club is very nice, but that security guy.. shame.. you don’t treat people like that !
