Catering & Hospitality
“I am really enjoying the course here. It’s very interesting, there is so much to know about cooking. There were a lot of things I thought about going into before I chose catering, but I have definitely made the right choice. I looked at other colleges but I liked Uxbridge the best.
There is a good atmosphere here, I get on well with other people and the lecturers are really good. Training here gives you the right skills to go into industry – because we serve meals to the public it is like working in a real restaurant.”
This fast-moving industry demands qualified, skilled staff especially in and around London and the Heathrow area. These courses offer students the opportunity to learn the skills required for hospitality and service as well as learning about food preparation and cooking. Students work in industrystandard kitchens serving a fully licensed restaurant with up to 40 covers.
Staff are fully trained chefs and front of house managers with lots of experience in running gastro-pubs and restaurants, so students are learning from highly qualified teachers.
The restaurant, at the Hayes Campus, is open weekdays and on selected evenings so come along and sample the food for yourself!
