“I really like it. Now that I’m in pharmacy, it’s actually closer to me than before when it was in CAB. The new location is also a lot bigger so it’s great.”

“It’s really good. I had it before and I didn’t like it. But this one is better somehow. It’s really good and really traditional.”

Sally Lam — Kinesiology II
“I think it’s nice. But now more people will come to SUB instead of CAB and CAB has a larger cafeteria so it’ll probably be more crowded now.”

Kyle Monda — Arts V
“It’s beautiful, I’m happy about the expanded menu, the staff is friendly, and it’s what we need more of. They have healthy and affordable food.”

Andrew Bates — Pharmacy I
“I like how it’s more central and easier to access. More people will know about it here. When it was back in CAB I never went by it, but now that it’s here it’s much easier to access.”
