Hidden Gem!

Finally made it here and we took one of our children along(3 year old!) It's a make to order cafeteria, it has quite a number of clearly marked vegan items(about half the menu) and the food preparers seemed to understand the difference. the dining area is quite large and sprawling,nice for an intimate chat or some study time, but the low, knee high tables are not the greatest for eating. There are about three regular height tables, but they seemed to be full, and I would assume they usually are. The food was good, rice and pasta bowls that you can have with your choice of sauces/toppings,and shepherds pie or a feew different sandwiches. mid range pricing, and good quality food!

Pros: large, quiet dining area, well marked vegan options, quick service

Cons: low tables, hard to access if not on campus, only open during school year

McMaster University - Diversity Services (!!!)

I'm a proud McMaster employee and vegan. Bridges accomodates students, faculty and staff who are vegetarian for political and religious reasons. The atmosphere is very welcoming -- a very warm and inviting lounge. The menu is a fantastic combination of different ethnic dishes and old standards. My personal favourites are the chilli on flatbread (with VEGAN CHEESE), giant samosas, and sweet potato fries.
My only regret with Bridges is that although it is open to the public, its not easily accessible if you're not on campus. McMaster parking is difficult, and the campus is very large.

Pros: Health Concious, Vegan Cheese, Diverse Ethnic Dishes

Cons: Parking

Best on campus eating

McMaster vegetarian students are lucky to have such a great vegetarian/vegan dining hall on campus. Also open to the public, this restaurant features many menu favourites, as well as a daily special that is always worth checking out. Best sweet potato fries I've ever had.

Pros: fantastic variety, make your own pasta bar, knowledgable chef

Cons: hard to get to if not on campus
