We have opened three new outlets in MECD this year; Collaborate on the ground floor (Booth St East entrance), Change on the ground floor (Grosvenor St entrance) and Connect on the second floor. Please note that Sackville Street Coffee (formerly Starbucks) remains open 8.30am-3.30pm Monday to Friday.

Here at Food on Campus we pride ourselves on being honest, customer focused and affordable, providing you - our students, staff and external guests - with a variety of delicious, high quality food and drink options across campus to keep you fed and watered.

In addition, we are proud of our sustainable ethos and the fact that we take responsibility for the impact our business has on the environment. Where we can we use local suppliers, only source meat and fish from sustainable sources where animal welfare is assured, and are committed to making Greater Manchester single use plastic free.

Finally, we are quite chatty on social media, and post lots of information about our offers, events and other exciting things you might want to know about. Be sure to stay in the loop and follow us on Twitter, Facebook and Instagram. We also love feedback – good or bad – just drop us an email at foodoncampus@manchester.ac.uk and we will get back to you sharpish!
