University Centre Caf gets a makeover

The University Centre Cafeteria closed its doors on Dec. 13 to facilitate a major renovation and expansion. The eight-month project will see a shift from a cafeteria-style model to a market-style concept where food is freshly prepared before the customer. The new facility, to be named Mystic Market, will set a new standard in campus dining, creating a unique, West Coast dining experience for students, staff, faculty and visitors. The facility will introduce nine self-branded dining concepts to appeal to the diverse tastes of the campus community.

Construction begins in January 2014, with completion scheduled for fall 2014. During this time a Construction Caf&e#180; will operate in the University Centre. Hours and staffing levels will be increased at all other campus food outlets.

Please note that Counselling Services will be relocating from University Centre to the ground floor of the Carroll Residence building (near the entrance to the Cadboro Commons cafeteria) during the construction period.
