We aim to keep up with trends in foodservice - offering you well-balanced, nutritional Canadian cuisine, multi-cultural dishes and popular national brands.

More information and a virtual tour of residence and campus living is available at http://www.dal.ca/housing. If you are living on campus in a traditional residence (dorm style), your meal plan is included - you get to choose a specific meal plan option that works best with your schedule and lifestyle. If you live in the university's off-campus residences or in a privately-owned residence or at home in the local area, you can purchase meal plans and eat in campus dining rooms for the school year.
