Hours and Menus

We believe there’s something special about taking care of our own. That’s why Western’s eight residence dining halls are proudly self-operated. Our teams know our community and are committed to creating a dining experience that works for you, with fresh, nutritious options available throughout the day. Whether you’re grabbing your first coffee, meeting friends for a meal or stopping by for a late-night snack, there’s always something to enjoy.

Between classes, you don’t have to trek back to your residence to eat. Your ONECard works at 20+ campus eateries, 15+ off-campus meal plan partners and all main campus residence dining halls, so there is always something nearby. Keep in mind that you’ll pay the full retail price at these locations outside of residence.
