Nandos is another good choice for a large group (assuming you like spicy chicken... maybe not for a veggie though!).

Nando's actually do really nice veggie burgers and beanie burgers! And I haven't tried it, but they also do some thing with Portobello mushroom and halloumi cheese...I'm not sure they accept bookings though - the one near me doesn't.

Oh yeah guys have you any ideas where I could book a place for a meal for about 30 people? Without a deposit as well as I don't think I could get it in time. Its for tuesday

Thanks

Downing's ultimate frisbee team had a social at Giraffe (http://www.giraffe.net/) last term. There probably weren't as many as 30 of us, but the staff dealt really well with such a large number, putting tables together and topping up water .etc. Seemed like a good place for vegetarians too.

Really? Maybe thats why she was ok to maybe going to Nandos last time...

Nah I know, it is a pitty. If I turn up with 30 people they would laugh at me and tell me they would have a table ready in 4-5 hours

The Nandos opposite Emma is always busy, but the one at the Chav-Plex (ok ok "Cambridge Leisure" ) is often not as busy.

Chav-plex

To be honest in that weather I think that would be too far. Then again I am quite lazy

Anyways, back in Cambridge in about 16 hours

Hehe, back when I was an undergrad I used to think the station was a long way. Now cycling between Addies and town seems no distance (I guess it isn't really - 15 mins cycle).

I did not know there was a Giraffe in Cambridge. You have made my week.

I have different perceptions of distance though at home and at Cambridge

Me too...at home I get to have a car

It's round the back of Bank, Zara and H&M Went there at the very end of last term and ended up spending £100 between four girls - the cocktails were too tempting!

Haha I don't drive at home, but I am less lazy about walking/cycling/getting drove places at home

Thats what I am worried about since I am paying!

You're paying for all 30 people?!?!

Tbh, I might be able to get a car permit if I wanted during term, but hey, the cycling's good for me.
Also, here, St Andrews is tiny, so I can walk/run everywhere, and I only go to like two places outside of town...basically the whole world is accessible here, whereas town is effort in Cambridge!

That is handy. I was told by someone that they thought Cambridge was a small town. I burst out laughing and said that the rural town I live in must be a field then
