Looking for a place to eat? Check out these food joints recommended by York students.
The Orange Snail
Sitting in The Orange Snail, I just feel at home. Their food is so freshly made that it’s still steaming when you get it. Looking out the windows with warm food and cozy décor, I feel like I'm having a proper meal at home.
Style: Caribbean
Location: Stong College
Students’ Recommendations: jerk chicken, snail burger, and according to the owners, “Everything down the menu!”
Price range: $10.00–$15.00
Revolution Noodles & Smokes
You may already know about the Tim Hortons in the Dahdaleh Building, but have you ever gone behind it to check out some Southeast Asian flavours? I love how much they let you customize your order, from different choices of noodles and proteins to whether you want your order with broth or stir fried.
Style: Southeast Asian
Location: Dahdaleh Building
Students’ Recommendations: rice noodle soup
Price range: $12.00–$15.00
Pita Land
Among all the food joints on Keele Campus, Pita Land has to be my personal favourite. Their sauces bring flavour to the next level, and the portion sizes are really good. Their meals often keep me full for the whole day.
Style: Middle Eastern
Location: York Lanes
Students’ Recommendations: wraps, plates, pita box
Price range: $15.00–$25.00
Pizza Pizza
I walk past this Pizza Pizza every time I’m on campus and it always smells amazing. It's super convenient to just grab a slice of pizza for a quick lunch in between classes. Cheese pizza is my all-time favourite.
Style: Pizza
Location: Central Square
Students’ Recommendations: cheese, pepperoni
Price range: $5.00–$10.00
Z-teca
Whenever I’m looking for a healthier (but still filling) option on campus, Z-teca is my go-to spot. I don’t know about you, but I find salads are so expensive these days. Z-teca has great fresh veggies and gives you lots of protein. And it’s tasty too!
Style: Mexican
Location: York Lanes
Students’ Recommendations: burritos, salads
Price range: $15.00–$20.00
