4 and a half years ago, I moved from a small town in Norfolk to Huddersfield for University - and I have not looked back once. Food wise, you can find almost any cuisine you want to find, all within a ten minute drive or twenty minute walk of the town centre - I've found cuisines I'd never eaten before! Night life, while not quite city-worthy, offers you a range of clubs, pubs and bars for whatever your taste may be; whether you like to dress up or be casual. Similarly, between the Kingsgate shopping centre and the town centre roads, most high street chains have a place - even if just inside of the house of Fraser. Same as coffee shops and cafe's, there's something for everyone. Where this town falls a little short, however, is the limited activities to do within close proximity to the town. Laser tag can be done within a ten minute walk, but it would take at least half an hour to walk to bowling. There are multiple escape rooms in the town centre and just on the edge, but if you wish to play mini golf or go rock climbing, you will have to go out to brighouse or castleford. Overall, a decent value for money if you have a car, or are willing to take a couple of buses out to activities. Despite this, train links to neighbouring towns and cities are frequent and fairly pleasant.

The food is good quality but costs a lot of money, drinks Also cost a lot of money. The food is really yummy in the restaurants. The town/city is avaerage sizes and there are things to do some you have to pay for but it's an alright town

Huddersfield is a small town, so be prepared for that if you go here. The university is amazing and has so many facilities for every single course, and is really close to cities like leeds and Manchester so these are quick and easy to visit. The nightclubs in Huddersfield are really good, but there isn't a wide array of choice - Camel and Tokyo are the top favourites.

The nightlife is excellent and hudderHudder is all about the nightlife and the football, so I would recommend the town for food, parties and entertainment as all the cinemas are good and it is other train ride from other big cities like Leeds or Manchester.

Good places for nights out and some good restaurants around. Kings gate it good for shopping and Queensgate also has lots of shops so you can always find what you need

The kings gate centre provides people with plenty of shops to choose from. There are many places to eat , shop and go night clubbing. Included with bus and train station for easy transportation.However this could b improved by adding more places that are available in Leeds such as Victoria secret , Hollister, Taco Bell, lush, Dunkin donuts etc.. I feel like more shops around the area and all areas should include student discounts such as boots and essential places where students need to shop to get better value for money. Another problem that shops face not just in Huddersfield but around the country, is that things are getting even more over priced in places as cheap as primark. Another problem faced is that some busses etc. 549 are not available after 3 on weekdays which is rediculous and therefore I sometimes cannot get home after a college day.

Good places to eat and drink. Lots of opportunity to eat during the day and at night same for drinking. Great shops in shopping centre and around. Easy to get to other big cities via train.

Huddersfield is a great University location. The town isn't too big, which can have it's downfalls when it come to eating out, shopping in nightlife but it catet to students very well. There's plenty of places offering student discounts with more opening up every year. The university itself is nice and compact, so students don't need to go on huge walks to get to their next lectures. For those wanting to explore the local area there are some great walks with amazing views for miles. Castle Hill is a popular one for sunny days an BBQs. Overall, I would rate the location at 4*s .

Huddersfield Uni Is amazing. Nights out are always eventful. And the faculty are the best in their own ways.

The town is very nice it’s a mixture of cheap student shops and nice shops. We are surrounded by countryside so there are so many nice walks and runs to go on. On the train too it’s also a great adventure :)

Nights out- variety of different bars and clubs, can become repetitive but still really enjoyable! Food- many different takeaways and minimal varied resteraunts, including your obvious Nando’s, Pizza Hut and spoons etc! Shopping- can always find what you’re looking for, there is the popular shops for both male and female!
