There are a few different models of study or writing cafes at unis. Some are timed events, where you come together, write in bursts with coffee breaks, and with a bit of social time before/after (based on the '⁠shut up and write' approach). Others are more of a drop-in where students can come along and work with tutors or mentors on-hand, and with various freebies, in a welcoming space (see ⁠here for one of the first).
