This menu has been selected, and will be prepared and served, by advance catering students of the college, all under the supervision of experienced teaching staff.  The restaurant, which is ordinarily open to the public Monday-Friday (special arrangements for SOP), is an essential part of student training and experience. Avenue 141 Restaurant delivers a high standard of food and service and has a well-regarded local reputation. 

Parking

When arriving by car, enter the site from the slip road off Bishopsfield Road and immediately turn right.  Continue for about 30m and turn left along a road passing teaching rooms on your left and housing on your right.  At the end of the road turn left again and continue passing all buildings on your left until you reach a designated car parking area at the end of this cul-de-sac.  This is the car park closest to the restaurant where there are also disabled spaces.

Registration

Those attending the AGM (and lunch) will need to walk to the reception area in the William Price Building (Building C) to register and then proceed to the conference room at first floor in this building (lift available).  Toilets are available close-by (marked Staff Male and Staff Female).  There are disabled toilets also at ground and first floor levels.

Meeting

The meeting will commence at about 11.30am and is expected to finish about 12.15pm.  For those not attending the meeting refreshment facilities may be available at ground floor in the William Price Building and elsewhere on campus.  After the meeting, members and guests should make their way on foot (level route – no steps) to Avenue 141 Restaurant.  There will be staff and students on site who will offer directions (it’s a big campus!).  The Avenue 141 restaurant has toilet facilities provided, including disabled.

Lunch

Lunch will be taken at about 1.00pm.  Service will finish by 3.15pm as students have tutorials etc. to attend (staff will be available for a period after 3.00pm).  In the restaurant there is a cash bar for pre-lunch drinks and wine orders.  As those who have attended before will know, the wine list is not too extensive but the prices are very reasonable.
