Accessible public space

The Lounge is a modern building that has a small library, a cafe, couches, and Internet access. The wifi is sometimes hit and miss and the book & dvd collection is limited due to its small size. I've mostly used the ground floor space to meet friends, especially in the evening as there aren't many public & wheelchair accessible venues open late in Deptford (it gets an extra star for being open until 10 on weekdays and also for having Sunday openings, note the cafe operates a much more limited amount of time).
