The Sanctuary Cafe N W Ltd

Profit isn't the point at this not-for-profit café, which sits at the heart of the Sherriff Centre — a community charity hub beneath the arches of St James that also runs a post office and soft play. The Liberty Coffee Roasters house blend comes with a choice of alternative milks, and the cake counter covers vegan and gluten-, nut- and dairy-free options, with toasted sandwiches and an evening bar pouring beer, wine and prosecco. Free Wi-Fi, comfy sofas, large tables for groups and a wheelchair-accessible entrance and seating make it an easy place to settle in.
