Natural Bar's Progress Over the Years

Feedback, where we would we be without feedback. Thanks to your input and ideas we have been able to shape and develop our offer to cater for your specific needs. As a result of this one of our major transformations over the past few years has been the Natural bar in the Dock restaurant.

FF Eating Out Awards

The FreeFrom Eating Out Awards have been launched to raise awareness of the huge opportunities offered by 'freefrom' food within the food service sector and we are proud to announce we have been shortlisted for this years awards.

The Honest Cafe

The first ever 24 hour ‘Honest Café has been installed at Southampton Solent University. Literally the first ever in the country. Healthy vending will never be the same.

Free From Menu

Through social media we gain a lot of feedback and it is this feedback that helps us to develop our offer and bring you the very best in catering across our services. One big topic from last term was the availability of dishes that were suitable for those with a food intolerance and / or allergy.

Our Commitment to You - MSC

Grilled Hake with Braised Peas & Bacon and Baked Hake with Chilli Marinade are just two of the dishes you will find on our Bowl bar that carry the MSC label. 

When you see the MSC blue logo on our menus you'll know that the fish we serve in our restaurant is from a sustainable fishery.

Top Michelin-starred chef Raymond Blanc OBE has turned detective for a new series of short animations about sustainable fish. The Chef Patron of Le Manoir aux Quat' Saisons has followed Inspector Clouseau, turning into a cartoon super-sleuth to investigate three cases that would test even the greatest of detectives.

Here is the link to his first challenge entitled -

The Curious Case of the Fish in the Canteen

But that's not all!

By visiting the MSC in the UK Facebook page you can enter the competition to win yourself a 'SPY-PAD' (or 16GB iPad mini with retina display to you and me)

So look out for information regarding this fantastic competition in the restaurant and remember that every time you see the MSC logo on one of our dishes it is part of our continued Commitment To You to ensure we deliver the best in food you can trust.
