Cafeteria Prices & Payment
Cafeteria prices are displayed in the Servery and on the daily menus, and student receive a 25% discount. We operate a cashless system, and the best way to pay is through the UPay payment system. You can also pay by debit or credit card, but you will not receive the student discount.
Allergen Information
Please ask about the allergen information of any item of food not on the menu or price list. The absence of information does not mean the item of food does not contain allergens.
Electronic communication is prohibited at all times in the Dining Hall
This includes:
- Use of a mobile device for talking, texting, tweeting, emailing, etc.
- Listening to music, even with headphones.
Use of a tablet or laptop, for reading only, is permitted at Breakfast.
One of the things that makes Cambridge special is that Colleges bring together people from a very wide range of academic backgrounds and cultures.
At most universities, you largely meet only people who were in the same school or department. Wolfson is extra-special because it doesn't have a High Table which separates Fellows from students; here we all eat together. The dining table thus provides a lively social space in which people meet and interact as equals. In very few places will you find the opportunity easily to converse with such a range of colleagues and contemporaries.
Conversation is therefore a central part of our collegiate ethos. The reason we ask you to refrain from using electronic devices at all meals except breakfast is because we want to preserve this tradition that is precious to our collegiate life.
Please respect this principle. Talk, don’t text.
Use of a camera is prohibited at formal dinners.
