A SPACE FOR EVERYONE
Working together to achieve happier and healthier lives
Our very own coffee shop inspired by Sunderland's shipyards and local history. It's the perfect pitstop for refreshments or an ideal place to meet up with friends, family or clients. It's also open every SAFC home game as part of the matchday Fan Zone.
