Story Café

Immerse yourself in tales and poems from around the world, as we rediscover the joy of being read to. From wild and windswept wonderlands, to fearless feminist fairytales, Story Café will spark your curiosity and freshen your perspective. So why not sit back and relax, top up your tea, and become part of the story.

Story Café, Thursdays 6th June to 27th June, 8th, 15th and 29th August and 12th September, 12.30pm to 2.30pm, £2/Free, Women only

It’s great if you’re new to reading, are struggling to find the time to read, or just want to sit back, relax and enjoy listening to stories and poems being read aloud. It’s the perfect way to try new types of writing, and it’s also a brilliant way to meet new people. We love to see new faces around the table, so why not top up your tea and become part of the story. Packed lunches welcome!
