House of Cards

Campus espresso bar where playing cards call your order and coffee funds student charities.

Tiny, high-turnover campus coffee counter with a playful, communal energy - students queue between lectures, chat over the counter, and linger on outdoor seating with dogs and laptops.

Orders are tracked with playing cards instead of numbers, drawing a joker occasionally wins a free coffee; a ballot box lets customers vote which charity gets that month's donation; outdoor seating has a USB charging port; Keep Cups accepted; beans from Supreme Coffee roasters.

Not applicable - a contemporary campus espresso bar rather than a heritage-cuisine venue.

Reasonably priced for a campus cafe and consistent on quality, though a couple of reviewers flag the large flat white and a weekend surcharge as steeper than expected.
