Great place for students to hang out. I've been at this school for almost 3 years and I dont think I've ever enjoyed and chose a place more to just hang out. It feels really clean and the food is decent but it's enough that at least you have different options. There is always at least one spot to sit and it's always kept clean.
The old center is great to grad food and have a chat with friends. It's located close to everything so it's frequently visited and can be full at times. The new center is really nice and great for studying. It's spacious and the decor was lovely.
Common eating and meeting place for students!! Diverse food options! Located near subway! Microwave oven for common use! Architecture of this building is great!! Never forget to try the underground bar and restaurant!
Nice space. Okay food.
Decent place to relax with a lot of different food options. A bit on the pricey side, but there are microwaves here in case you bring your own food! Plus there are always seats upstairs no matter how packed it is downstairs!
A bird pooped in my food here. Edit: since the picture of the actual poop I uploaded keeps vanishing, I can write a more detailed and on topic review too... but that's not flattering either. Sure, there are plenty of fast food options here. Some can pass for healthy. Most would never survive outside in the real world consistently poor quality, increased prices- they just milk the student population since they're the only options here. Shoutout to the Underground Kitchen here for being one of the best eateries at York though. There are people selling counterfeit perfumes and jewellery along the windows. The MacBook and iPhone cases aren't fake, they're just imported. Which is pretty much the same thing, really. There's a homeless issue here during the nights. Birds roost in the ceiling supports. It's common to see both here. Cue the one that pooped in my lunch the bird, not the homeless guys. The student advocacy group YFS "advocates" for 52,000 students in the loosest sense possible. And even that is contingent on how many drinks you've had. All the club spaces on the upper floors are always reserved but never seem to be occupied. They built another student centre, but even that has half the space permanently reserved for clubs. For comparison, there are something like 15 publicly available group study rooms at York. Yes, we have more private club rooms than we have study rooms at this university. YFS holds free breakfasts and agenda giveaways, but unironically there is no such thing as a free meal. When I say that they hand out free agendas, I mean that in the most literal sense. The material gifts are just to further their own agenda. The last time I tried claiming one, they wanted me to sign a "check-in sheet" suspiciously labeled a petition. When asked for a copy of the petition, nobody could produce a copy. You can't make this stuff up.
Student centre for York University students. It has a several food places such as Wendys, Ginos and the Underground restaurant . Hosts some club events too on the upper floors
Nice building. Lots of places to sit and lounge. Lots of places to eat. Very loud and social so don't expect to study here.
Great place with great food options and a hub that hosts a lot of in-campus events. It's bright and has a lot of seating place.
Dirty and always smells disgusting. I try to avoid it as much as I can. Everytime I go there my clothes and hair gets a very disturbing smell because there is no ventilation in there
