The Invention Rooms, within Imperial College's White City Campus, have launched a cafe and community space, which is hosting a series of free festive events in December.

The  Invention Rooms Café  is open to the public from 9am till 4pm on Mondays to Fridays, serving coffees, teas, cold drinks, sandwiches, pastries, salads, wraps and light meals, together with a range of seasonal specials - including Gingerbread Flat White, Crème Brûlée Latte or Mince Pie Hot Chocolate.

The Interaction Zone is a welcoming space where the local community can take part in free hands-on activities, classes, tours, or relax over a cup of coffee alongside Imperial’s staff and students.

The facilities include a community garden and outside terrace and space for exhibitions, displays and events.
