MV Café is open! Coffee, tea and biscuits are available in the MV room for all MVs. We have a large 5 litre kettle. You may fill the kettle with water from the canteen, bathroom or any tap you can find. The nearest one is somewhere outside the MV room. Wash the mug after you have used it or bring your own mug. Do tidy up and empty the kettle if you are the last one to leave. As you may have noticed, there is minimal cleaning service in the MV room! There is also no wifi service. The only service available in the MV cafe is self-service!
