All-you-can-eat
Never go hungry! Student life is stressful enough without having to worry about running out of money or topping up your meal plan. Simply eat your fill at every meal. Hot and cold beverages to take away to class are included.
No cards, no cash, no fuss
Once you have paid your residence fees you won’t need to open your wallet again to eat in the Grebel cafeteria.
After Hours
Late Supper, lunch to go - you never need to miss a meal at Grebel. Sign up for a late supper if you have a class or lab that falls during supper time and eat your meal when it’s more convenient. Pack a nutritious lunch to bring with you if you have a class conflict during lunch hours.
Snack Night
Every Monday, Thursday, Saturday, and Sunday night students gather in the dining room for a late-night snack and good conversation
Afternoon Snacks
From 2-4 pm, residents have access to the serving line to enjoy a variety of snacks including cereal, breads and spreads, fresh fruit, yogurt, and beverages.
