UOGUIDE

Between you and me I have a feeling you didn't click on this guide for me to talk about Ottawa fine dining. But that's okay because what we are focusing on are the best places to grab a bite to eat both on and around the uOttawa campus. Whether you're looking for a greasy spoon, or something quick on campus this guide is for you.

uOttawa Dining

uOttawa meal plans are a great place to start and depending on where you chose to live based on our guide, they may be mandatory. With both 5 and 7 day options and uOttawa dining hall hours of 24/7 offering all you care to eat, you certainly won't go hungry.

There is also what can be considered the uOttawa food court located in the SITE building which offers great selections on the far side of campus. Campus isn't your only choice for food though, as in the downtown core there is a wide range of restaurants near uOttawa offering everything you could possibly want.

When trying to find food near uOttawa there's a lot of factors in play. Maybe you want to try what food is Ottawa known for, or perhaps you're just thankful for the uOttawa food services hours, because nothing beats 24/7.

No matter what you're looking for you can find it here. With over 2,000 restaurants in a city of 1,000,000 people you'll find almost every culture's cuisine and preferences represented here. So whether it's University of Ottawa food services that's feeding you, or the great selection of restaurants near University of Ottawa, the freshman 15 will be well worth it.

Lets start with on campus options

uOttawa Restaurants on Campus

uottawa dining hall

When it comes to uOttawa dining nothing beats the classics. With an ever changing menu and 24/7 all you care to eat options at fan favourite stations such as The Grill and Made to Order coupled with not having to cook for yourself, this is a great option for students of all academic years.

Le Bac à frites

Sometimes nothing beats a burger and fries and there's nowhere better on campus than Le Bac à Frites. With a convenient location in the parking lot adjacent to three uOttawa residence buildings this is a fan favourite especially for students with a 5 day meal plan.

PIVIK

The infamous PIVIK general store is back and better than ever. Located in the UCU just down from the bookstore there's nowhere better. PIVIK is the campus to go for not just snacks and drinks, but their resident chef hand-makes delicious sandwiches and wraps daily

The food on campus is great in terms of both quality and convenience, but truly there aren't that many options. With 2,000+ restaurants to choose from Ottawa fine dining to dive bars, sometimes it's worth taking a stroll downtown.

The Byward Market is a short walk downtown but your options aren't limited there. With your UPass you can reach nearly all corners of the city and the great dining options off the beaten path.

Father & Sons

Or as it's affectionately called around campus FNS. Whether you're a karaoke star, love a good breakfast, or are just looking for a cheap pitcher FNS is the perfect choice. With no undergraduate bar on campus FNS has stepped in and filled this role tenfold making them the best student bar Ottawa has to offer

Three brothers

Three Brothers may not be located on campus, but their Osgoode location certainly knows how to take care of students. Flex dollars come with your first year dining plan and there's no better place to spend them. Three Brothers is the perfect choice for shawarma and poutine, especially after a long night.

no forks given

They may claim to not give a fork, but based on the quality of their food you could never tell. The self acclaimed "Best burger joint in Ottawa!" has far more to offer, their famous PopCurds which they will even turn into a poutine are a fan favourite. With high quality and low prices, it's clear why this is a favourite among students

This is often one of the first questions uOttawa students find themselves with. We're here to answer it in this guide.
