Campus eats

COFFEE SUSHI

Level 1: If you’re ever in a tough spot, pull your hood up so no one recognizes you and get in line at the Forestry Building’s Tim Hortons. The Sauder one is too high-profile, and you don’t want anyone to catch you getting a watered-down medium double-double in between classes.

Level 2: Literally any of the UBC-run coffee places. They all taste the same, but one notable spot is the little joint in the CIRS building on West Mall. And of course, Starbucks.

Level 3: If you’re looking for a prime coffee-date spot, look no further. Loafe Cafe is just expensive enough for you to spend most days standing outside staring in at the ridiculous menu prices. Level 1: That place in the Nest with some god-awful pun. It’s so bad it’s hard to remember what it’s called. Honour Roll? That may be it. Your digestive system might hate you for it.

Level 2: If you want relatively edible sushi, go to Bento. It’s located in Sauder where all the suits will most definitely judge you for your lunchtime order.

Level 3: For overpriced sushi, your best bet is Browns. To be fair, it goes great with an overpriced cocktail.

BUBBLE TEA BURGERS

Level 1: One awesome thing about campus is the plethora of options for bubble tea. If you’ve got a few extra minutes between classes, stop by Chatime or Pearl Fever. They’re pretty affordable or as affordable as bubble tea can be.

Level 2: Another good spot is the CoCo by the McDonalds. It’s a little on the pricey side but their tapioca is the perfect amount of chewy.

Level 3: A new bubble tea place opened up this past summer in the Nest, and it’s got insane prices to match its insane flavour. Check out Teadot for some boujee boba action. Level 1: This is a no-brainer. A Big Mac from McDonalds is literally a hangover cure. If you’re vegetarian, the Beyond Meat burger from A&W is going to be your BFF.

Level 2: If you want a semi-authentic diner experience, drop by Triple O’s on a weeknight with your roommates and enjoy a yummy milkshake and some fantastic onion rings. The vibe in there makes up for the mediocrity of the actual burgers.

Level 3: Well, this is where we plug The Gallery, because it would be wrong not to do so. However, if you want a slightly more restaurant-esque experience, the UBC gods blessed us with Browns this past year. U
