The Bobbin

As AU's adopted Students' Union obviously they're gonna provide some great deals. They have a burger and drink deal where you can get a burger meal and a soft drink or an alcoholic one from as little as £7.75. They also have Pancake Tuesday when it's 25p per pancake all day and Wing Wednesday when it's 25p per wing all day.
