Catering

Our food is rated among the best in the University and our friendly catering team can meet a wide variety of dietary requirements. We offer hot and cold meals for breakfast, lunch and dinner, with the addition of soup and salad at lunchtime. If you have a busy day ahead, we offer ‘grab bags’ or packed meals.

Postgraduates living in college accommodation enjoy full catering during undergraduate term-time and are self-catered outside of term-time. In normal times, students living out can purchase meals in College, including termly, discounted meal packages.
We cater for a range of dietary requirements, including vegan, gluten free and halal. Students should email johns.catering@durham.ac.uk to let our catering team know of individual requirements.
