Welcome to Gordon's! Located on the ground floor amidst the hustle and bustle of the Students' Union building, Gordon's is perfect for grabbing a quick bite or a refreshing drink between classes.
We offer a wide range of coffees, teas, iced coffees, and cold drinks to keep you energized or why not indulge in one of our our sweet and savoury snacks or fresh bakes! If you're looking for a lunch break stop you can also take advantage of our fantastic meal deal - with a sandwich , snack and drink for just £3.60 or if you're looking for something different we also have paninis, wraps and salads on hand too.
With a great playlist and air-con (you'll thank us for that tip in summer) you can chose to eat in or rake away your purchase.
As with all our outlets, Gordon’s is staffed by UCL students who care about the quality of your coffee and the crunchiness of your panini.

Remember to bring a reusable cup - all disposable cups cost 50p in our cafés
As a Union we pride ourselves in placing planet over profit and are taking a number of actions to help reduce our impact on the environment. Some of these include:
- Oat milk is our default - did you know it's not the coffee in your drink that has the biggest environmental impact, it's the milk? So, the next time you grab a latte, have oat milk instead of dairy and you'd have reduced it's emissions by approximately 70% thanks to our local carbon-neutral suppliers Minor Figures.
- We're proud to work with local and ethical partners who have the same sustainable values we do wherever possible - which is why we stock products such as Tony's Chocolonely, and Karma Cola and you'll notice we avoid products with non-recyclable packaging.
- Ditch the disposable - we use crockery in all our cafés and encourage customers to bring their own reusable to-go cups, which is why we charge 50p for any disposable cup used. If you don't have your own cup yet, we sell sustainable UCL reusable cups - and your first drink is on us for making the switch.
- Carbon labelling - you'll notice our hot food menus all have carbon scores next to them to help you make informed decisions about the impact of our food. You can also find a carbon labelled drinks menu online too.
