Catering outlets
Take at look at all our catering outlets across the South Kensington, Hammersmith and Charing Cross campuses.
Cashless trial complete - thank you for your feedback
We received 50 feedback responses on the cashless trial, which took place in 8 catering outlets between December 2017 and February 2018. 88% of the students and staff we heard from were not in favour of a fully cashless operation in outlets. The majority of fedback on the trial was:
- A fully cashless service does not offer the freedom to choose how to pay
- Card payments using non-UK bank accounts may attract a charge on every transaction
- There is a preference amongst some students and staff to use cash to more easily keep to a weekly spending budget
- There was a perception that Yoyo payments take too long
- It was felt that queue times have not visibly reduced
- It is inconvenient and unnecessary not to accept cash outright
We have considered this feedback very carefully and can confirm:
- A fully cashless service will not be rolled out across all outlets
- The outlets involved in the trial will remain cashless as standard with the exception of the Senior Common Room Restaurant and the H-Bar Cafe due to their comparatively high usage
- We will have one 'cash only' till available in the Senior Common Room Restaurant and the H-Bar Cafe during peak times
