Ziferblat Albert Dock

We decided to try this homely café out as we heard there’s only a few around in the UK. It costs £0.06/minute per person but all you can eat and drink.
My husband and I both had regular coffees which we made from the provided machine. We also picked up a few cakes and sweets from the food table. After we were finished, we washed our plates and cups in the kitchen area (as required). All in all we stayed for 20 min and had to pay £2.40 in the end.
We enjoyed this alternative to the usual café and hope this concept will come to Brighton.

9 and a half weeks old, this branch of Ziferblat is the company’s third in the UK. Located on Albert Dock, it’s great to see a fairly well-​known concept come to the area and perhaps spur more businesses to set up shop here — and more independents?
My visit was unfortunately on a professional basis as I was attending a Liverpool Information Network event to hear about the future of the city, so I didn’t stay for too long. However, the experience I did have was an excellent taster! Ben Davies, the Head of Marketing for Ziferblat, gave a quick talk about the future of the business (the Liverpool branch is set to get some meeting rooms available for rent upstairs) which was very interesting and great to hear about their plans.
The space itself is large with plenty of seating options, both at tables and general sofas/​large chairs, and the wi-​fi was super easy to connect to. The large kitchen holds all the tea and treats, with a coffee table just to the side. The hosts for the morning were very friendly, despite having to come in early for us!
The Manchester branch is now definitely on my must visit list, and this is where I’ll head next time I’m in need of wi-​fi and a quiet spot in Liverpool!
