YU Eats at a Glance

York University's Food Services have improved significantly with scratch-made meals prepared by new culinary teams led by Executive Chef Sergio Onorati and Glendon’s Executive Chef Frederic Pouch. The menu rotations are now more diverse, reflecting the community's diversity, and include progressive Indigenous cuisine from a partnership with Chef Shane Chartrand. The availability of nutritious plant-based meals has increased, and partnerships with local chefs and food halls offer unique experiences. A new catering program provides student organizations with discounts, and franchises like Copper Branch and Palgong Bubble Tea have been added. Birch Bark Coffee Co. provides organic, Fair Trade, and SPP-certified coffee. YU Eats' teams focus on sustainable approaches, including reusable containers and reduced food waste, in line with the community's long-term UN SDG goals.

Nutrition Counselling for York U Residents

Nutrition is an essential component of both physical and mental well-being for university students. Its impact on academic success cannot be overstated. At York University, we are committed to promoting student health by offering individualized nutrition counselling with our Registered Dietitian to on-campus residents, and the best part is there are no extra costs for this service when you are on the Dining Plan program.
