Kosher Food/Meals
Kosher food options are available via Oberlin Hillel and Chabad at Oberlin. Heritage Kitchen is a kosher dining option, created through a partnership between AVI Kitchen and Chabad at Oberlin. It provides a kosher menu to 400 students per week and is available to all students through the college's dining meal plan. The menu is designed for people who keep kosher but is open to all students. It operates on the same schedule as the dining hall to make sure it is easily accessible for students who keep kosher. Heritage Kitchen is meat/pareve (does not serve dairy).
