The award comes after 51勛圖厙窪蹋  for its commitment to providing more plant-based food in response to student and staff requests.

This academic year has seen College open its first caf矇 dedicated to serving plant-based dishes. The Professor Stuart Hall Building Caf矇 now offers balanced vegan and vegetarian dishes with the menu including vegan salads and a vegan sausage roll.

Other outlets on campus will continue to serve fish and meat-based dishes, with beef the only animal protein removed from menus.

The new vegetarian range was designed by Executive Chef Andrew Walker, who said: Were responding to what students and staff have asked for with this new selection of good quality, healthy and affordable dishes.

Food can play such an important part in helping build communities sharing a meal is an incredibly important part of the day and the new offering gives people the chance to sit down and enjoy wholesome food together.

The caf矇 will also serve jacket potatoes with vegan toppers and a new macro salad bar. The new range will also be rolled out across other campus outlets like The Refectory and Thirty-Five Caf矇.
