Howard Ferguson Dining Hall - Toronto, Ontario

it’s just so horrible i would rather eat dog food. Ironically the best tasting thing here is not even made in here (frozen food). Astronomically high cost if you don’t have meal plan they will steal your money

Rude staff, food is bad for the price, closes so early that i sometimes can’t eat before i go to class… not to mention the cross contamination

Terrible food, sometimes inedible. Terrible staff. Expensive for what I got. Atmosphere is decent. Tables are unclean but not always a mess. The only good thing great about them is the location within UofT is prime. Would not recommend for food unless you really need to grab a quick one ... on campus. Read more

As a student, I was forced into a $2000, compulsory meal plan to last me 4 months. It is/was incredibly expensive-and the amount paid for each meal did not speak for the quality, or the quantity of the food at all. The fries and side dishes were drenched in grease, ... the salads + pastries were stale and kept out all day, exposed to germs and oxidation. Salads had cross contamination with dairy, eggs and gluten 24/7. Meager selection of fruits (oranges sometimes, otherwise bananas, apples only) & unhealthy drinks (energy drinks, sodas, etc) were mainly available. The sushi was old, and I had gotten rotten pieces on 3 separate occasions. The options for someone who is vegan + gluten free (not by choice), were atrocious. They offered me gluten free bread, but did not have any gluten free + vegan meat substitutes, spreads, no soup options, no salad dressings, or cereals or milks that I could use there (only buy cartons for $8/L). I had to request accommodation for my meals in which I had to call ahead of time every day to get 1 dish a day prepared for me. I ended up in the hospital once due to cross contamination & I would sometimes just get a filled up container of just corn or rice and sent on my way. After i filed a complaint, they were less careless with my food, and it did get a bit better. Staff were either really friendly, or really rude. Also no biodegradable/plastic free options for utensils and carry out containers. Read more

Overpriced, inconvenient hours of operation, you get sick of the food by 2nd semester. To be fair, a lot of it is quite good but definitely not worth the price. Most of the staff is quite nice to talk to, but there are staff that are quite nasty towards customers. The ... waffles on weekends are awesome. Not enough vegan/vegetarian options most days. Unless you want to eat salad all the time. 🤷 Read more
