Offering you fast, filling and healthy yet affordable high-quality food, Union Streat Kitchen has been curated by students, for students.

Food and Drink

Two pots of hot food from Union Streat Kitchen

Our menu has a variety of tasty options from fresh, filling hot pots and soups, to sandwiches, wraps, salads, pastries and a range of cakes and snacks at low prices!

There is something for everyone with our vegetarian, vegan, gluten-free, halal and dairy-free food options.

Grab and go if you’re in between classes and need a quick bite, or stay a little longer and chat with friends over a delicious meal. Feel free to also try a cup of our ethically sourced, premium coffee from the Caféology range, while you find a spot in the café to study.

Your Students' Union and NUS Collaboration

NUS have talked to numerous students across the country who want fast, filling, healthier and affordable options to eat regularly on campus. They accepted the challenge and worked exclusively with Students’ Unions to create an affordable, inclusive catering provision that puts the planet before profit.

The outlet serves only high quality food prepared with British Ingredients that are Red Tractor Certified Standard as a minimum, at a range of price points to suit a variety of student pockets.

Your Students' Union want to ensure that all CU Group students have access to great food at affordable prices. Not only are they bringing this catering provision to students, but any profit made from the outlet will be invested back into the student community and student-led initiatives. Employability is a key strategic aim for Your Students' Union too, so Union Streat Kitchen will also work to provide training and meaningful earning opportunities wherever possible.
