What is your institution renowned for and why?
The Benedictine Institute (including the former Benedictine Study & Arts Centre) is renowned not only for its Theology, Liturgy and Language Courses but also for its hospitality and its quiet, leafy setting. The  Centre, a foundation of the Benedictine Monks of Ealing Abbey whose monastery is also situated on the site, was established in 1992, upon the twin monastic emphases of hospitality and community life.

Are there any on site bars, cafes or restaurants?
Cafes and restaurants situated approx. 10 mins. walk from the Centre. There is also a Bar (Benet Club) in the Parish Centre,  adjoining the Abbey church, which is on the same site. Students are welcome to visit and to join the Benet Club, where they can meet after lectures.
