Dining Services

Mealtimes at Portsmouth Abbey School are all about community.

No cell phone use is permitted in the Stillman Dining Hall and hats are removed. We encourage all students to communicate with each other and connect in the midst of busy days.

A formal, sit-down lunch is offered twice weekly during the School year during non-COVID times. These lunches provide students with the opportunity to spend time with faculty and peers they otherwise would not have the opportunity to know. In addition, the family-style serving enables the practice of table manners and fosters further connections.

Dining Policies & Procedures
One of our main goals is to provide a pleasant, clean, comfortable and satisfying dining experience. In order to meet this goal, we ask for your assistance with the following procedures.

  • Please bring your plates, utensils and disposables to the dish room window when you have finished dining.
  • Please refrain from taking food, dishes or utensils from the dining area.
  • As most meals are self service and it is "all you care to eat" please take what you like but be conscious of food waste and eat what you take! It is all our responsibility to eliminate food waste as much as possible.

Social Responsibility
Your dining experience is more than great food, just like sustainability is more than simply saying we are going "green." At Sodexo, we understand the best way to have a better today and a better tomorrow is to be proactive for your health, for your community and for your planet. On our site you'll find information to make healthy choices in all three of these areas. Explore it and check back often for updates because a better tomorrow starts today!
