The Hub
Oxford University’s first Passivhaus certified building.
Housing both our Common Room and the Hub Café, the Passivhaus ‘green’ standard is supported by the College’s eco-friendly philosophy: the majority of the packaging used is compostable; our coffee is from the local coffee company, Jericho Coffee Traders, who support coffee growing farms, charities and cooperatives in Africa and South America; our tea is Rainforest Alliance certified and we stock a range of Fairtrade products; our ingredients are sourced locally, where possible; and we use biodegradable packaging for our products.
The Hub Café
Set in our tranquil grounds in leafy North Oxford, the Hub Café is the perfect place to meet with friends and colleagues. The café serves light lunches, sweet treats and snacks, as well as a range of hot drinks. Take look at our special offers below.
