A great place to sit in the summer
I've only been out to Orange Grove once in the evening and that was quite a while ago, so I don't feel I can review it for that - except to tell you that it's a bad place to bring non-student friends to, as they won't let them in!What I do find Orange Grove is great for is sitting in the sunshine outside, in their lovely outdoor area - in fact, you'll find hoardes of students doing just that around May/June kind of time. The student-only policy doesn't apply in the daytime so it's a pleasant place to sit even if you're not a student. And if you are, it's fairly easy to get away with not buying a drink and just sitting in the sun if you want!I usually go there around exam time in the afternoon and get a J2O and sit there with my revision notes - either outside, or inside on a squishy sofa if I've got lots of pieces of paper that are going to blow away. They serve food as well so if you've got fed up with being stuck in your room revising and need to blow the cobwebs out, in many ways this is better than the library. Sometimes it's a bit noisy outside but you can usually find a quiet corner if you need to work or just sit back and be surrounded by the babble if it's a break you need.

Top for students
This student-only bar/pub is always busy, with a good friendly atmosphere, pool tables, sports, music, games machines and a decking/smoking area. Its situated in the middle of the student area of Fallowfield and is a very popular place for a drink and some food. The £3 meals arent the biggest in the world, but for that price you cannot go wrong. The drinks are not as cheap as you may expect, but its still worth that little bit extra. Recommended if your a student.
