When I was at Uni eons ago the lass who worked in the Cafe went f***ing apeshit at me one day cos I was pissed and called her pet :lol:

Do they still have the pool table at the back? Stick a bit of paper in and it jams it open so you can play free games on it all day :lol: We'd also put the paper cups in the pockets when they sussed the paper trick.
 
The cafe was still there and did a lovely coronation chicken and chips when I was last there. That was in 2001 though.

Was still there when I did my PGCE in 2004. They did a f***ing manky sausage sarnie and chips which was still strangely satisfying.
 
i did some re furbishment work on the offices upstairs, early 90"s time . it looks like a really old victorian building , but it was only built in the 50"s if i remember rightly. their was some people we knew coming out of Durham book center, (over the road) and i shouted of them , then scooted past the entire first floor windows on an old office chair, so they could only see my head going past from outside. raised a laff.:lol: "the underground cafe" it was called i think, only went in a couple of times, was ok from what i remember. was more of a hang out .:cool:
 
Spent hours there between 2000-2003 like, me personal favourite was rancid sausage and chips with beans. We called the sausages 'big dergs cerks.'

Thats rang a bell, never went in but remember 'The Underground' sign and the stairs leading down when I was younger.
