Advantages: Handy for RGU students, Good Shop, Good for inter-lecture chilling / boozing!

Disadvantages: Not as popular as some venues in Aberdeen

OK I take most of it back! I've actually had a few good nights in the RGUnion. The main reason for it being not as popular is due to the size and layout of the premises!

The union itself is based right at the administrative centre of the Robert Gordon University at Schoolhill, Aberdeen.

It's very handy for all areas of the University as there is a direct university sponsored bus service to all of the other campus's.

The bus stop for this service is located right outside the front door and also is the location for a Clydesdale Bank machine <<Look at my opinion on the Clydesdale Bank before opening an account though!!>>

The student community at RGU are split between a few venues. A lot go to the Triple Kirks pub which is two minutes away from the union, a lot go to the Aberdeen University union which is about five minutes walk away at Gallowgate and the rest go the the RGUnion.

The RGUnion has the following layout:

Ground Floor => Shop and Reception. The shop has both friendly staff and sells stationary, fags , RGU Merchandise and also bus tickets for the Inter-Campus bus service.

1st Floor => Cafe/Bar This area is perfect for chilling between lectures and sells Coffee's snacks and booze.... Magic! ;-)

2nd Floor => Pool Tables & Bar... Get pissed, play pool say no more

The RGUnion also contains "Club" Dancy type place but generally caters for minority tastes.

The Aberdeen union is generally frequented more due to it's veritable cornucopia of facilities... Massive Bar in Sivells, Pool, Snooker & Bandits Room (with bar), Cafe (With bar) , No smoking bar, two venues, Jobcentre etc etc.

Don't avoid the RGUnion.... it's a well kept secret! It's good for what it was made for!!!

Come on re rate this opinion as I've re-written it in it's entirety!! Sticker :-)
