Restaurants & Hospitality QMUL launch the ‘QMUL Guarantee’

Over the next few weeks, colleagues will see the ‘QMUL Guarantee’ appearing within the various catering outlets at Mile End and Whitechapel. The guarantee is a partner to the already established outlets and hospitality service and provides reassurance of the ethos and values Restaurants and Hospitality QMUL strives for as an organisation committed to providing its customers with the best quality food and service.

The launch of the guarantee follows an extensive exercise where the service has looked at every aspect of catering at QMUL to understand what we offer our customers and what they demand of us. During this process, students and staff, visitors and the catering team were involved in defining the guarantee’s values and essence. This has resulted in a proud expression summed up by ‘Serving QMUL – Feeding Success’ with QMUL at the centre of this.

Compostable Tableware at The Curve

Keep an eye out at the Curve in September for the launch of their brand new Palm Leaf tableware! 

Entirely made from Areca nut palm leaves, the tableware is free from chemicals and can be used in the microwave and freezer. By using this tableware, rather than the chinaware in the Curve previously, the Curve can save some valuable money, time and water that was previously spent washing up throughout the day. 

QMUL is committed to addressing its environmental, social and economic impacts and opportunities in order to build a sustainable future. This initiative has been introduced to help support this objective.
