Dining in Trinity College

Trinity College, Oxford’s dining hall
has a rich history, reflecting the college’s
long-standing traditions.
The original dining hall, dating back to the
time of Durham College, collapsed in 1618
due to excavation work in its cellar.

It was subsequently rebuilt under the presidency of Ralph Kettell (1599–1643).
Further renovations occurred around 1774, transitioning the hall’s style from Gothic to Baroque.

Trinity College prides itself on excellent food and service to deliver a true fine dining experience.
Their dedicated team are continuously creating exciting dishes to be beautifully served to their guests.

The traditional Dining Hall has been recently refurbished and was officially reopened in September 2024.
The Hall is furnished with leather seated chairs and traditional wooden tables.

Dinners held in the hall feature table top candelabra creating a special atmosphere for the occasion.
