Study Spots That Aren’t Your Room

Need a change of scene? Try the University libraries or grab a seat (and a coffee) at Faculty Coffee or Wayland’s Yard. Ideal for studying solo or catching up on group work.



Tasty, Affordable Eats

Hit up Peacer for massive pizza slices, Original Patty Men for unreal burgers, or Damascena for Middle Eastern flavours. Big on taste, easy on the budget — all a short walk or quick ride from Canvas.
