Kukoo's Street Food

Where: Oxford Road, opposite what used to be the old BBC (now a car park).

If your wallet is feeling healthy, wraps and salads start from £3.50.

Greggs

Where: Near the Whitworth Park Halls of Residence and opposite the MRI.

Why: There's nothing quite like a conciliatory Greggs to cheer yourself up after a bad day's work or a questionable exam. Its vitamin content is (probably) low, but it's comfort rating is relatively high.

Eat Goody
