Clean but coffee is a crime against humanity.

Grads Cafe is what you’d call a reliable pit-stop, but not one you’d brag about. Hygiene is on point at 5 stars, but the food seems to be as disappointing as a soggy biscuit. You’ll find yourself waiting ages for a coffee while you contemplate whether the Starbucks logo is actually just a cover for subpar brews.

With complaints about long queues and price tags that make you cringe, it’s hard to get excited about this place. Sam Moss hit the nail on the head calling it overpriced and awful—you might want to grab a snack elsewhere unless you enjoy an overly long wait for below-average caffeine fixes. Just make sure you bring your own cup for a slight discount; every penny counts around here.
