An absolutely fantastic little library. Upstairs is the perfect place for working or studying with big tables and ample power supply. The cafe and children's area has been my home for lunchtime and an early morning read with the little one more times than I carr to admit. The children's area has nice comfy sofa benches to read on and an incredible selection of books. The cafe really keeps the place vibrant and connected to the community. A library that seems to be getting it right!

Great library. They have everything in here from normal books to comics and even a great selection of manga which are all looked after. they have a cafe here that i haven't been to so i can't comment on that. This is not a quiet library which is one of the worst parts in my opinion, they have a large area in the corner for 1-5 yr olds which make a lot of noise. The toilets are not clean with barely any soap or toilet roll.

Very, very rude woman. Ruined it for the rest of them who are lovely. I will not be returning, be warned, if you decide to go make sure you don't give the wrong impression to others. As I've just been told!!!!!!!!!
