Cheap eats on campus

We know your student experience is shaped by far more than what happens inside the classroom. From comfortable spaces where you can relax and hang out with friends to having a wide and diverse range of food and beverage options to choose from, we’re committed to making campus a welcoming and enjoyable place for all. 

From Semester 2, 2025, we’re piloting a number of cheap eats initiatives across Camperdown/Darlington. So, whether you’re coming in five days a week or just for a class or two, you'll be able to enjoy a range of affordable food options when you're on campus.

$5 meals for students at Laneway

We're bringing $5 meals to Laneway in Semester 2, 2025, and unlocking this deal is simple.

Just visit Laneway on weekdays between 11:30 am and 2 pm (or until sold out), and present your student ID at the counter. You'll be able to choose from three tasty hot meals, rotated daily and selected dietary options included.
