Food Courts in Vancouver, BC

“This is seriously good ramen!! I had the black ramen (chicken broth with extra fresh garlic!!). The broth is rich and flavourful. And the egg is incredibly good! Great unique flavour and texture of yolk. Totally worth the trip to international village just to eat it! Would love to see this guy in his own shop one day ❤️

Parking: Free parking in the mall car park up to 2 hours“

“Typical food court offering a wide variety of food choices catering to working people at lunch. Vendor choices match demographic make-up of city plus pharmacy. The court was clean and full at lunch.
Nice wall windows looking out to a patio. Easy access to Sky Train. Rest rooms available.“

“I highly recommend this store! The staff are super friendly, and the food really hits the spot. I especially loved how they added a generous amount of vegetables to my noodles — that’s a big plus for me. They cooked my teriyaki beef noodles right in front of me, which not only shows their cleanliness but also gave me fun street food vibes. Loved the whole experience!“

“Really Korean people, there's a Korean restaurant here and it's really delicious.
The budae stew is good and the service is good, so when you feel a little bloated from Canadian food, it's perfect to come here and have some hot soup.
Be sure to come here and eat~~

“A great addition to Lonsdale Quay! Highly recommend their bowls and salads!“

“Cheapest, most worth it food on campus IMO. You MUST try Donair Town, My Home Cuisine, and Want Want Hot & Spicy House (don't customize your own pot unless you want to spend more money). My only problem with this place is that it is hella dirty and I think the janitors legit clean it once per day because there is always a time that the trash cans are full and used containers are stacked like jenga.“

“As an alumnus who roamed these halls decades ago, I can confidently say the food today is leagues ahead of the culinary endurance tests we once endured.

Back in my day, a tray of something vaguely resembling food was considered a balanced meal. Now, students have entire buffet spreads with options, flavour, and, dare I say, edible ingredients.

Honestly, people are utterly spoiled these days; if they had to survive a single term on what we ate, they’d be petitioning the UN for humanitarian aid.“

“This is one of the three conventional first year dining halls on UBC campus, and it is solidly alright.

They always offer a very wide selection of food at their various different stations including different types of pizza, burgers, pasta, and spins on traditional Mexican, homestyle, and Asian cuisine. They have all of this along with quite the yogurt/salad bar assortment + desserts and drinks.

Unlimited food with so many options is definitely a benefit, but some choices can be subpar at best and I noticed readily accessible protein options (primarily meat) are not always available.

My go to "clean" options (download nutrislice to be sure, but don't expect to see nutritional facts posted publicly ANYWHERE) that also taste pretty good include the sesame chicken salad with a hard boiled egg, any of their salmon meals, or a simple yogurt bowl.

It may be difficult to eat here everyday, but sometimes there are hidden gems and the staff never disappoint. This is why they deserve an absolute minimum of 4 stars :)

Vegetarian options: Lots of good vegan and vegetarian options for both dessert and main courses!“

“I came here for dinner in my first year at UBC almost everyday, because it’s probably the best dining hall out of the three. The food was very consistent. My recommendations: butter chicken from Square Kitchen, fried rice from Custom Kitchen, and the occasional dim sum on weekends. There used to be serious health safety issues with bugs being found in the food, so be careful of that“

“I tried the new bubble tea! The cheese definitely is sth new and I love it. The cheese and fresh strawberry make a good taste together.“

“It’s always awesome to have great and fresh food with amazing varieties of items of both vegetarian and non vegetarian that are sure to please everyone’s taste buds and one such place is there within easy reach and reasonable pricing. This is the place which has been in operation for several years now helping many office workers in the tower and many people in and around the area. The portions come with choice of meats and two vegetable items totally complimentary! For the carb, they serve hot rice with a surprising addition of a fried papad at no charge. This has been my ‘go to’ place for my lunch everyday for many years so long I was working in the tower office and now having retired visit this place without fail whenever I happened to visit downtown Vancouver. Great quality with no change in taste and flavour for years. Checkout their special item of the day, that is on every weekday Recommended highly!

Vegetarian options: Vegetable items - brussels, cabbage, chickpea curry, kidney beans curry, sautéed masala potatoes“
