Food scene
Wright's is one of the best places to choose in the area for a lunchtime snack - good quality food well prepared. It's not fine dining, but the menu contains things like welsh rarebit with leeks and spicy sausage and chocolate torte. Coffee is good too, and the staff are great. They run their own deli shop that you can browse whilst you wait for your food.
A laidback and comfortable place to while away some time.
