Big improvements to food services are coming to the Burnaby campus—including plans for an international food floor in the Mackenzie Café, 24-hour food service in the residence dining hall, and a Starbucks outlet in the West Mall Complex.

Changes also include:

  • Extended hours of operation in all locations, well into the evenings and weekends;
  • New, healthier and vegetarian foods, and an expanded range of authentic international foods served in the Mackenzie Café;
  • An entirely new campus-wide catering service, with a variety of prices including "student budget pricing". This service will be managed by SFU Meetings, Events and Conference Services (MECS) in an upgraded Diamond Alumni Centre.
  • A move to more healthy options in vending machines;
  • Authentic international foods served in an entirely refurbished Discovery I facility that houses the ever-growing Fraser International College;
  • Plus other new venues in the Academic Quadrangle to be announced this fall.

"These changes represent an important step forward in fostering a supportive campus environment, a key goal of our new strategic vision,” said SFU president Andrew Petter.
