Carbon Free Dining

Delivering what consumers want

With 33% of consumers now choosing to buy from brands they believe are doing social or environmental good*, Carbon Free Dining is a United Nations Environment backed restaurant initiative, providing its partner restaurants with the environmental differentiator that gives diners a feel-good factor.

A recent study found that more than one in five of the people actively choose brands if they made their sustainability credentials clearer, while 53% of consumers in the UK say they feel better when they buy products that are sustainably produced*.

Partner restaurants include an amount on each bill (not per diner) which we guarantee will be used to plant a single carbon sequestering fruit tree in the developing world. By adding a small note at the bottom of each bill, diners are informed that the optional amount will offset the carbon footprint of their meal, delivering the feel-good factor that brings diners back.
