Sit down soup places have been my go-to pick me up for years, and while it's not as economical as a multipack of Maggi noodles, I love a gallon of broth-based soup that I know I could never make at home.

Newcastle is host to some amazing (and relatively cheap) ramen bowls if you’re trying not to abuse your bank account and need some sustenance. Chain options like the always-reliable Wagamama do a bowl for £12-£17, and Maki & Ramen's comes in at just £7-£9 (even offering a cheeky student discount). With both situated in Eldon Square, it's an easy way to treat yourself to lunch near campus and a great place to gossip over some bok choy with your flatmates. The best thing about going to a restaurant for ramen is that you can nearly always guarantee that you can get it for under £15, and at places like J.K. you can design your own noodle bowl.

For a casual night its perfect for warming yourself up, and as winter creeps in and you find yourself shivering in between lectures, there’s nothing better than running to the arms of a tried-and-true ramen bowl.
