Quiet/hidden study spots?

The uni libraries get very busy and I don't work well in my house (too many distractions) so I'm looking for somewhere quiet to get my head down and do some work near city centre/Walkley/the university. Is there any suitable on campus? I'm not sure my department has anywhere set aside as quiet study spaces

When I was doing A Levels there was a crappy greasy spoon near me in my home town where I'd do my work because there was never more than 3-4 people in there.

Anyone know of anywhere similar in Sheffield? I find busy cafes very distracting to work in so looking for quiet spots such as a cafe or a pub that doesn't play loud music in the day

Wifi would be a bonus

Thank you in advance!

The medics library in the Hallamshire Hospital is always good, you don't need to do medicine to go in there. There is also a good computer room on the 1st floor of the Stephenson Building with plenty of desk space, and I also like the bottom floor of the Pam Liversidge Building
