Cult Café Bar was essentially a students' bar, but was also open to the general public.
It's a modern, glass-fronted building that offered some keg ales and had excellent views of the historic Wet Dock. It had an eclectic selection of furniture and maintained close links with the University that surrounds the location. There was an outdoor seating area.
