About Us

University of Waterloo Food Services (UWFS) provides a range of products and services to students, faculty, staff, and the broader community through the operation of 24 outlets. The department includes residence cafeterias, cash operations outlets, franchises, Catering Services, Conference Services, and vending.

The department provides meal plans, food-related wellness and nutritional programs, in addition to a range of initiatives supporting student life, diversity and culture.​

UWFS is a self-operated ancillary service; not a common format for todays’ institutions. As a key stakeholder in student services, UWFS strives to create and cultivate a comprehensive service that promotes a healthy, sustainable university environment.
