The Senior Staff Common Room is one of MUBAS’s hubs for relaxation, conversation, and camaraderie among administrative and academic staff. Perched on the second floor of the main building, the SSCR serves as a lounge, restaurant, pub, and game room all in one. It’s no surprise it’s considered the place to unwind, recharge, and connect with colleagues.

Whether you’ve skipped breakfast or just need a mid-morning snack, the SSCR restaurant and bar have you covered. From fresh cakes and samosas to hearty meals of beef, goat, or local chicken served with nsima, rice, or chips, there’s always something satisfying on the menu. By lunchtime, the atmosphere comes alive with friendly chatter and the clinking of cutlery — a daily ritual that blends good food with great company.

As the day winds down, the SSCR transforms into a cozy evening retreat. Staff gather around the lounge with a soft drink or something stronger, watching football, catching up on the news, or simply enjoying good conversation. Others might be found playing a game of pool, while some prefer the quiet comfort of a newspaper in one of the armchairs.

More than just a social spot, the SSCR is known for its safe and respectful environment — a place where you can truly relax without worry. No lost phones, no scuffles — just a warm, professional atmosphere where everyone feels at home.

At MUBAS, the Senior Staff Common Room isn’t just a room — it’s a community, a tradition, and a reminder that work-life balance can be both enjoyable and enriching.
