In my day there were 5 or 6 bars here on campus, shame they've all closed - I used to be part of the furniture in the Grapevine.
From what I've read too, football supporters will not be allowed in the uni bars.

That's what I though, got Falmer, East Slope, the Arts centre, Grapevine, a few more that I can't remember the name of and the 'club'. Can't see fans being allowed anywhere them neither
was 'The Crypt' then 'The Hothouse' now 'The Cube' and you forgot the Park Village cocktail bar.

Still no answer from the thread's author as to where they got the information from.

Went to see the Boston Celtics NBA team a while back, excellent selection of food and beverages, went to a texmex kiosk for nacho's and chilli and an italian for a pint of peroni - all available on the main concourse.
american sports are BRILLIANT for their selection of food and drink - when i was a bit of a regular watching toronto fc there was a SUSHI kiosk inside the stadium
the albion could do a lot worse than take a look across the pond at how to provide innovative catering

Talking to other people about it - someone said a noodle bar would be great; I don't know if a pizza parlour would be feasible.
And if they really want to keep us there for any length of time - I'd suggest kebabs.

it's all about the BUNCE over here isn't it, rather than actually providing a decent service
spending as little as possible and charging as much as possible

get 'albion kebabs' on the job
actually, don't, they're shit
pizza parlour (something like the one outside churchill square?) is a decent shout......i'd imagine it's fairly cheap to make half decent stuff

plenty of grounds offer pizza - exeter even had a dominos facility in the away end. admittedly, it did sell out before half time, but if they can do something like that with their stadium then there is no reason why we cant at falmer
i also hope they have a bit of a selection for those vegetarians among us - a choice between chips or ice cream can become a bit tiresome

At one of these Food & Drink Festival effort on Jubilee Street / New Road recently, some bloke had an entire vat of vegetables in batter, plus a gas-fired hotplate.
His vegetable fritters (f***ing enormous) at £2.00 a pop were stunning.
For a sweet, you could have had banana fritters.

Id love to see Noodles, like they do at music festivals, be quite happy to pay 3-4 quid for a big box of noodles which lasts forever!
Or
A massive yorkshire with sausage and mash inside, be well up for paying £5 for that.
Beer wise i would always be drinking in town and getting the train at the last minute, i would only imagine being early to the ground at the first game at falmer the rest of the time, i wouldnt be fussed, aslong as they pump it out in those machines which poors 6 at a time so i dont have to wait long to get a beer.

What about a nice HOT PASTY stall, like the one in Churchill Square ?
I had a cheese & bacon one the other day from there, it was SUMPTUOUS

People still really haven't grasped the fact that 22,000 people aren't going to be able to hop on a train at the last minute, have they?
