St John's Parish Church

What to expect

They have various ‘pop-up’ cafes during the week, serving hot drinks and cakes for a reasonable cost.

St John's is also the site of one of Peterborough's Digital Hubs. These Hubs offer free and friendly support to help people use computers, smart phones, and the internet. The drop-ins are informal, you don't need to book, just come in Tuesdays from 10am - 12. You can even stay for the pop-up cafe that starts at 12.

Other activities include:

• Tuesdays Til Two - lunchtime concerts performed by professional musicians from 1 - 1:45pm (preceded by a pop-up cafe from 12 - 1pm)
• Piccolo - a live classical music concert for under-5s
