Dining Hall
A significant part of the culture at Mannix is derived from the experience of communal dining, an experience that sets us apart.
We provide 20 meals per week with a wide-ranging menu developed on a weekly basis. From breakfast to supper and everything in between, a focus on resident feedback, quality produce and freshly-made dishes combine to create a balanced menu. Fresh fruit is always available and residents who can’t come back for lunch can make a sandwich at breakfast to takeaway. Similarly, late dinners are provided if residents have a university commitment during dinner. Most Wednesday evenings during the semester we have Formal Dinner, whereby the whole College community gathers together.
We can cater for vegetarian, vegan, gluten-free, dairy-free and nut-free requirements.
