A great convenient location for getting good breakfast and lunch. The staff are all super sweet and helpful. I love getting their power wraps and making my own salads. Great for the person who wants healthy and tasty food at a great price. read more

I visited on the third day open and it's cool. The lunch line wasn't long at 11:45 am but it got longer as I waited. They serve soup, salad, sandwiches, snacks, bakery, hot and cold beverages. I think the prices are the same as downtown at $7 for a small salad and sandwiches $7-8. There are two checkouts and the wait was no longer than anywhere else on campus at noon. The salad station could have moved faster and the salad didn't bust outta the container like they do downtown, that could use some improvement. Of course you have to wrestle to find an empty table in the SUB, so try your luck. read more

See all

Never been to a Pete's Togogo before. But thankfully they decided to open one in SUB. I think that is a right move. We students need better alternative than the usual suspects in the building. For once, we not only have better food choice but also have better service. Its still new and they are playing around with their combos and products. I like their morning sandwich combos with Javablend roasted coffee. The bread they use is really good. Will definitely be a "rePete" customer to this one. read more

Welcome to my new favourite place on Dal's campus. I have to say, it seems like Dal is taking it up a notch on opening up better tasting food amenities. Okay, back to the review. This food booth just opened less than a month ago and it has a variety of freshly made food; sandwiches, THE BEST SALAD BAR, smoothies, coffee, baked goods, soups, etc... It's Pete's Frootique's little restaurant so you know its quality. I ordered the Breakfast sandwich with sausage and it was delicious! However, I would have preferred if the egg and sausage were warm (they were made in the morning so they were cold). I found that the line-up was very long and it took the cashier a very long time to put us threw - but to be fair, this is probably the best food place on campus so it's always insanely busy. Other than cash going slowly, the staff if quite friendly and helpful. It's pretty expensive here but the way I see it... Cheap with no taste? Or expensive quality taste? read more

Real talk: This place is expensive. Yes, most food services at Dal are a bit on the expensive side but this feels excessive. Is the food good? Yes? Is it some of the best on campus? Almost definitely. Is the service good? Mostly. Is it well-staffed? Not all the time. I do appreciate the diverse selection (as opposed to, say, burgers and pizza) but I find they often run out of stock fairly quickly. The coffee is also fairly popular. Not sure how that compares price-wise to the rest of campus. read more

In the neighbourhood, in need of a solid lunch and with little time, I opted to test out the new Pete's location. The lineup was a bit disorganized, as it's cramped into a smaller space than the Dresden Row location, so people were weaving in and out, waiting in the wrong line, or cutting the line to get soup even though there were people close to the register and simply waiting to pay. That said, the salad offerings are on par with what you expect at the home base location, and mine was definitely trying to escape the small salad box. For $8.05 with tax, it's a dense nutritious lunch that you really can't go wrong with, since you get to pick every last morsel that goes inside. Yum. Be warned - if you're here at peak hours it'll be hard to find a place to sit in the SUB but this is a great to-go option. read more

Decent place on campus. One of the only places to get something that is actually healthy. On the expensive side considering what you get, but the flavours are good and the staff are pleasant. I will say that I'm usually there later in the day (think dinner time), so I can't speak to the rush of lunch or anything like that. It's always nice and quiet whenever I end up there. read more

I got the veggie and hummus sandwich today for lunch. $9.20 after tax. for bread that didn't seem too fresh and the meagerest fillings ever. After eating the first half and being underwhelmed, I opened up the second half. 3 super thin slices of cucumber, chopped greens that covered about 1/2 of the surface, the thinnest smear of something that might have been hummus and 1 lonely super thin slice of tomato (covering about 1/3 of the surface). No wonder I was underwhelmed! It was barely enough veggies to be considered the garnish on a meat sandwich. I ended up augmenting it with a couple of cheese portions from my office stash to bring down the fillings to bread ratio and still wished I had some mayo or something to help get that dry bread down. read more

Pete's ToGoGo is a decent food spot on campus with lots of sandwich, and salad options and a few soups to choose from. Highly recommend the West African Peanut Soup - so good! It can get really busy, but staff are great at getting people through quickly. The food is a bit expensive, but as one of the few places to get quick, healthy meals on campus I'll pay it occasionally. Their tea selection is definitely the best on campus! read more

A great little spot on the Dal campus. Their coffee is excellent, the service is usually prompt even during peak times, and the food hasn't disappointed. Their soups, sandwiches, and salads are a bit expensive, but they also have a collection of smaller, packaged meals that are very affordable. If you're a Dal student or work nearby, it's a good place to stop into. read more

I'm a Pete's regular and was thrilled when Pete's To Go Go moved into the SUB. I was initially a bit annoyed that the prices were jacked up compared to the exact same products down the street at the Pete's market on Dresden, and my experience never really improved. I take no issue with the food, which is without question fantastic, and the pricing doesn't bother me so much for just that reason. The quality of the service and the availability of products, however, leaves a lot to be desired. I've gone on multiple occasions to be told that they're out of greens at the salad bar. Really? A salad bar with no mixed greens, lettuce or spinach? The staff also don't seem to understand that putting a sandwich on a cold grill for 30 seconds doesn't do anything, and serve soggy breakfast sandwiches with no sense of pride in the quality of the food. I've also been served cold soup because "the burner was burning the soups so we just turned it off. We can microwave it for you if you'd like." It kills me to not give Pete's a 5-star rating, because every experience I've had at the Dresden pete's has been nothing but exceptional, but this location needs a lot of work, especially if they're trying to convince students to pay $10 for a sandwich. read more

Thank goodness they opened a health-conscious food establishment on campus! I work here and don't buy lunch often but it's nice to have options other than gravy-soaked fries and burgers (not that I don't like those things, but let's be honest, they're not so good for you to partake of on a regular basis!). I haven't tried the salad bar but plan to in future - everything looks really tasty and fresh. They also have things like packaged sliced fruit and pita chips - great if you just want a healthy snack on the go. The muffins are really tasty - you wouldn't think zucchini and walnuts would taste good together in a baked good, but I was pleasantly surprised! They carry Java Blend coffee which means a) supporting local (yay!) and b) deliciousness. I imagine during the school year and at lunch the line-ups are probably a pain but the few times I have gone in the morning this summer, there has been no one there and the service was really friendly. There is a section of comfy booths just to the side as well, which is a great place to sit and read or have a chat with a friend while you munch. You will definitely pay a bit more for items here than you will around the corner in the main cafeteria, but imho it's worth it for the quality and healthiness. All in all, a great new option on campus for lunch! read more
