On Monday, June 21, 2021, Mensa Academica will open its seating area so that guests can once again enjoy their meal inside the dining hall. The emergency catering service currently in operation will be phased out and replaced with expanded catering services. In addition to the meat/fish and vegan/vegetarian dishes, the specialty counters will resume offering burgers, salads, pasta and pizza (alternating weekly), and stir-fry dishes. The take out service will continue to be available.
The seating area is located on the 1st floor of Mensa Academica and is accessible between 11:30am and 3pm. Guests will be required provide their contact details to allow contact tracing. Currently only university members, i.e. students and staff, may be entertained. Students and staff must show their University IDs at the entrance.
