Best lunch experience ever, consistently. Great food quality and variety. You always have at least 1 main course of meat, fish and veggie, if not 2 or 3. Large salad bar that changes everyday, and filling your plate yourself with everything and anything you want is really great to satisfy everyone's preferences and reduce waste at the same time (they also have a residue scale at tray collection to remind you to eat responsibly). The desserts are amazing, water, milk, coffee, tea, bread with butter or hummus are complimentary, as well as different toppings and sauces for your chosen dish. Staff are almost always super nice and friendly. Heavy student discounts.
