Big Hands
An odd name for such a small place – we must assume it refers to the ample palms required to hold their baguettes, which are epic in size, and rather tasty. French sticks aside, it's the kind of place that people fall hopelessly in love with. Among it's siren charms are foreign beers, friendly staff and a jukebox that'll keep even the most discerning music nerd gripped. The drinks aren't the cheapest on campus, but it's a celebrity haunt – being in such easy reach of gig venue, The Academy – and thus can get away with a bit of daylight robbery.
