Under the direction of our highly-qualified Catering Manager, the College kitchen provides each resident with three tasty and nutritious meals each day, seven days a week. Each meal comes with a vegetarian option and at dinner there is a choice of two different meat dishes. Early and late meals and packed lunches are available for those whose lectures, labs, tutorials or sports practices fall during or close to meal times.
The kitchen is able to cater for those with special diets.
Shoes must be worn at all times in the dining room. Socks alone are not adequate. This is a Health and Safety regulation.
