Cherwell Collective helps the community cut carbon footprints through education and outreach. They reduce waste and help disadvantaged individuals. All are welcome at their Climatarian Kitchen, which offers fresh, hot meals, made with food that would otherwise be headed for landfill. At the same time, stock up on your own waste-saving ingredients at their food surplus market. These are both operated on a pay-what-you-can basis, so they're affordable for all. What's more, proceeds from the sales support Cherwell Collective's work tackling food poverty in the community (eg through the Cherwell Larder) - so you can enjoy great food knowing that it's 'giving back' to people and planet in more ways than one.

The aim is to provide customers with a range of dishes that reflect the diversity of Asia. Taking favourites from Thailand and matching them with recipes from Japan, Malaysia and China. They directly source all the vegetables, herbs and spices used to make the sauces that go with the dishes. The menu is deliberately limited to 8-10 dishes at any one time, enabling Chozen to execute on freshness and quality.

Chutneys is the oldest surviving Indian restaurant in the Oxford City. Their menus are based on the highest quality produce and fresh seasonal ingredients from all corners of South East Asia.
