dc.description.abstractAlthough tourism in decommissioned prisons is not new, tourists’ fine dining in a working prison is. In this chapter, we discuss fine dining in prisons as not only a new form of global tourism but also as leading social change. Hospitality training programmes in the form of fine dining restaurants help prisoner rehabilitation and enable social purpose to change public perceptions of prisoners. One example is The Clink Charity, UK, which is successfully running four training restaurants in prisons. This chapter suggests a replication of the Clink model domestically and internationally, so that, in the future, more tourists will be able to experience fine dining in prisons globally. Over the next thirty years, fine dining restaurants could have the ability to reduce reoffending, increase the hospitality workforce, change the stigma that prisoners face at present and become a popular niche tourism experience.
