 New: MCR Food Representatives
The JCR and MCR have recently passed motions to reinstate the position of 'Food Representatives', who are elected to represent the gastronomic interests of the JCR and MCR before the College. Practically, this means meeting with Chef regularly to give feedback on what we think about the food in Hall, and making suggestions for how this could be improved. The current MCR Food Rep is Margherita Coccia - please email her with any comments or suggestions that you would like her to pass on to Chef. (Please note that this only applies to the food served in Hall - any correspondance relating to the food at MCR dinners or other such events should be directed to the Social Secretaries). Food at Lincoln
Hall The Hall is Lincoln's chief term-time refectory and is located in Front Quad, a spectacular piece of fifteenth century architecture decorated with portraits of past fellows. At the top of hall is High Table (not very high, just situated on a slight dais, but you get the idea) where the fellows and their guests eat. During Full Term meals are available at the following times: The menus for First Hall and Second Hall are identical, and cost the same (generally £3.95 for three courses for college members, about twice that for guests). Payment is made by scanning your University Card, and is automatically added to your next set of battels (College bills). Menus are posted on a notice-board in the lodge every week. First Hall is informal (you collect it yourself from the Buttery), while Second Hall is formal (you can still wear normal clothes, but must put a gown on over the top, and the serving staff bring the food to your table). Turning up early is recommended, as is eating very quickly - unless you want the plate snatched from under your nose before you've finished! During Vacations, lunch and dinner are usually available in Hall, but times are more variable than during term, and you need to sign up in advance at the lodge. Deep Hall Deep Hall is the name of Lincoln College's subterranean bar. Cosy and relaxed with little nooks and crannies to hide yourself in, it is a great place to come and grab a drink after dinner. It is located directly below the Main Hall in the old wine cellars, and is accessible via Staircase 10 or from Grove Quad. Simon the Barman is in charge. Deep Hall is essentially a members club (of which we're all of course members) and so is subsidised to an extent - it's far cheaper than any other non-college bar in Oxford. It also offers a lunch menu of sandwiches, burgers and baguettes during term, as well as chocolate, crisps and soft drinks. Payment is by cash only, but there is an automatic cash machine. Pool, table football, darts, pinball and arcade machines are available. Opening times: Snack lunches are served from 11:30-13:30 Monday-Friday in term-time. |
