The pre-paid flexible student dining scheme
Here at Lancaster University, we’re food experts sourcing local food where possible to make fresh and exciting meals.
If you’re a foodie but budgeting or cooking isn’t your thing then our Freedom Eats dining scheme might be the thing for you. Eat your way around campus with a variety of food choices and flexibility with our pre-paid student dining scheme.
The Freedom Eats scheme gives you the same benefits and food options as students who’ve chosen Catered Accommodation, however, it gives you the flexibility of living anywhere on or off campus and the choice of five different outlets to eat in.
Enjoy one, two or three meals a day, mix and match from The Marketplace, Barkers, The Deli, HIVE and The Mill.
You can opt for a termly plan which is paid in advance, allowing you peace of mind that you can always enjoy a wholesome meal, particularly during busy times such as revision and exam periods. It also saves the time of planning and budgeting for fresh meals every day.
Prices start from less than £30 per week saving up to 50% off our standard prices with no meal planning, budgeting or washing up to worry about.
*Please note the Freedom scheme does not include alcohol.
