The Pritchard Dining Hall is a food hall for university students located in Kelowna, British Columbia, aimed at giving the students a healthier overall diet by making nutritious food more easily accessible.

History

edit

UBC Okanagan opened a new student residence in Fall 2021, which features a 450 seat buffet-style restaurant called Pritchard Dining Hall. In its entirety, the UBC Okanagan meal plan is mandatory and is around $5000 per year. For those without the meal plan, the cost is $9 for breakfast, $13 for lunch, and $17 for dinner. The dining hall is commonly known for its small portion sizes, monotonous menu, and odd hours with it closing for two hours before every meal[1]. There have been multiple incidents thus far, as outlined below.

Incidents

edit

So far, two major incidents have occurred at Pritchard, both having to do with raw food. On the UBCO food critique Instagram, students have found both a piece of raw chicken[2] as well as a piece of raw beef[3], which could be a health hazard to the students and could possibly cause food poisoning. While other incidents have been mentioned, there is no direct evidence of these incidents, and thus their validity is uncertain.
