The delicious, high-quality meals at The Clink Restaurant at HMP Brixton are cooked and served by the students in training who are working towards gaining their City & Guilds NVQs in Food & Beverage Service, Professional Cookery and Food Hygiene.

Situated in the old governor’s house dating back to 1819, the air-conditioned restaurant allows the students to learn, engage with the public and take their first steps towards a new life. All the leather upholstery and boardroom tables are made by people in prison at HMP Frankland and poetry is from Clink graduates. Conference & meeting room facilities are available.
