New Express Coffee Machine

For only £1.20 you can grab a hot drink to go, or take a break from your studies or research and enjoy in our comfortable space.

We've introduced a new express coffee machine to The Shield! For only £1.20 you can grab a hot drink to go, or take a break from your studies or research and enjoy in our comfortable space. The Shield is open as a study, social and relaxation space every day from 8am-9pm. 

The express machine uses the same coffee beans that we use across our Students' Union outlets. So not only can you be sure of a coffee that tastes great, you'll also be helping to give back to the communities in Rwanda where it was created. Read more about our coffee's journey from the Rwandan hills to your cup here.
