UBC
See All Lists
1. Koerner's Pub
The best pub at UBC by far. Although lacking a dancefloor, like The Pit, or bigscreen TVs, like Mahony's, Koerner's is comfortable, cheap, and the selection of beer is way better. You can find draught beers from local brewers Okanagan Spring,…More »
2. Pendulum
Vancouver, BC V6T 1Z1
Canada
(604) 822-3411
Category:
Canadian (Traditional)
Neighbourhood: UBC
I've been a student at UBC for a while now, but for some reason I just never found myself in Pendulum until this semester. This is proof that the student society here is doing its job. Hearty, substantial food for rock bottom prices. I wander in here…More »
3. Blue Chip Cookies
Vancouver, BC V6T 2A5
Canada
(604) 822-6999
It might be named for the cookies but the coffee is where Blue Chip earns some stars. While the baked goods are excellent, all three varieties of the brew on offer here are exactly what a commuting student like me needs to kill a few minutes before…More »
4. Bernoulli's Bagels
Vancouver, BC V6T 1Z1
Canada
(604) 822-2325
Categories:
Bagels,
Sandwiches
Neighbourhood: UBC
One of the many counters in the SUB to grab a bite. This is my regular breakfast place when I find time on my hands most mornings. I occasionally wonder about the competence of some of their employees, but Bernoulli's usually delivers much needed…More »
5. The Pita Pit At Ubc
Pita Pit is delicous no matter how you slice it (but I don't recommend slicing your pita). Its like a sub shop, except instead of a sandwich you end up with a pita containing your choice of meats, vegetables, and sauces. It's cheap, filling, and…More »
6. Leona Mediterranean
Another fast food, food court style joint I like at UBC. This one in what is usually refered to as the Village (no relation to an M. Night Shyamalan movie). Nothing fancy, but it's cheap and tastes good for fast food. Lots of sovlaki, kabobs, and…More »
7. Red Burrito
Red Burrito continues to spread throughout Metro Vancouver like a delicious plague. It's a fairly standard build your own burrito place like the kind you find on every street corner in the States. They're a rarity here in Vancouver, though. Red…More »
8. The Delly
Vancouver, BC V6T 2A5
Canada
(604) 228-8121
Categories:
Indian,
Pakistani,
Sandwiches
Neighbourhood: UBC
In the basement of the Student Union Building, in the west corridor. One of the quickest, easiest, and tastiest options for food in the SUB. The sandwiches are made to order and they have a good selection of curry, hot wraps, and samosas. This is my…More »
9. UBC Bookstore
Vancouver, BC V6T 1Z4
Canada
(604) 822-2665
Category:
Bookstores
Neighbourhood: UBC
Having attended a few universities in my tumultuous university career I know a thing or two about their bookstores. UBC's is particularly large, befitting the size of the school, and has serious problems with lineups to pay for overpriced texts at…More »
10. Pit Pub
The only pub at UBC with a dance floor. Besides that, it's pretty unspectacular. Its most notable feature is also what earns the place its name and fame, as the dance floor is sunken a good metre or so below the level of the rest of the floor. They…More »
11. Pie R Squared Pizza
Vancouver, BC V6T 1Z1
Canada
(604) 822-4396
Categories:
Pizza,
Ethnic Food
Neighbourhood: UBC
Average tasting pizza that only stands out in one way: they put sesame seeds in their crust. It's novel and kind of tasty, but in every other respect there is nothing special about their specialty. It's over-priced to boot, at about $2.50 a slice.…More »
12. The Honour Roll
Vancouver, BC V6T 1Z1
Canada
(604) 822-2325
Categories:
Sushi Bars,
Ethnic Food
Neighbourhood: UBC
The quickest, most convienient option for sushi on campus. Located in the basement of the SUB. Nearly all their offerings are boxed up and put in a case for people to grab as they walk by. This means the rolls are freshest when it's busy, as the…More »
13. Mahony & Sons
Vancouver, BC V6T 1Z3
Canada
(604) 827-4444
Nominally an Irish pub and sports bar. The only thing Irish about this place is the celtic inspired decor, some guinness, and potato and leek soup on the menu. Otherwise expect food like any other pub; pizza, pasta, steak, etc.
Any place that has any…More »
14. Curry Point
Vancouver, BC V6T 1K6
Canada
(604) 221-0112
Another counter in what I like to call the food dungeon thanks to the location down a narrow flight of often slippery stairs. Curry Point was a staple for me until Leone came along simply because it's one of the few places in the food dungeon I can…More »
