Personally, I think a meeting in a pub or even a pub room gives a very different impression to a meeting in a university room, and we need to bear that in mind. Imagine giving a presentation or holding hustings.
Although we're only small now, I hope this is the start of something big. I say let's start as we mean to go on!

Have you looked at non-free venues? A function room in a pub probably wouldn't cost all that much, we don't need much more than that. B'ham is better located than Manchester.
Function rooms in pubs are frequently free if you ask nicely. Certainly WMUK v1 never paid for use of the function room of whatever that pub was in Borough.
