Mac Hall

[xDiMSuMx]

Does anyone know if there are any open spaces in the foodcourt or downstairs by the arcade for a small fast food place?

and does anyone know how much the rent is?

thx

[boi-alien]

go talk to the students union, everything in mac hall is owned and provisioned by them. Rent is fairly expensive from what i know. Also the process of getting approved by the students union is long and strenuous!

[logix]

the food court isn't part of the students union??

[Weapon_R]

Rent is extremely expensive for the rooms that are available. There are very long and tedious bylaws that have been drafted for each business. What kind of place were you looking to open? A business will NOT be allowed to open if the SU feels that it will infringe on the business of another operation.

yea i heard thas y they cant opn a mcdicks there

I see Pepsi everywhere at U of C and McDonald's uses Coke! hehe

[AquamosH]

I think A&W serves Coke, they just can't advertise that they do.

I heard there was a pop machine that dispenses Coke in engineering??

Pepsi made a huge charitable donation to the University of Calgary and the SU, and that is why the whole campus is Pepsi only - some vendors still serve coca-cola, but its on the DL.

What about the donation that Coke made to me, by giving me the energy with which to stay awake for some of the most boring classes ever??...lol

[WhiteNikes]

I know of certian clubs that have Coke on hand, but they tell me that they as well have to keep it on the DL. I often wondered about the rent there, because the guy who runs the comic shop never really seems all that busy, but he's been around for quite some time it sems.

all of the areas in MacHall are booked for the next 5 years (checked last year... so i know :P)

BUT you may want to go and book an appointment and put your name down on the list for dibs on the next open spot

Afaik, they were there (and serving Coke) before the U cut a deal with Pepsi, so they're an exception.

[xDiMSuMx]

was thinking of getting a vietnamese sub place in there


well i guess i'll go talk to the students union and see..

Unfortunately, there already exists a Vietnamese sub shop, and therefore, you will not be able to open one up if the owners of the existing shop put that specific clause into their contracts, and i'm pretty sure all of them do (which explains why we only have one burger place, one pasta place, one pizza place, etc)

[thich]

yup.
you won't be able to get a viet sub place in there now anyways
but if you could get one pretty close to the university..... that might work.

[max_boost]

Where is the Viet sub shop that is already in machall??

[thich]

at the overpriced bake shop that's next to DQ
i heard the subs suck tho...
i hate it when they put cheese in viet subs!

[RSeXy]

i like that place! they have good pepperoni stuffed buns!! ...and everything is overpriced in MacHall.

Least they inked the deal with the right company, stupid uofc made a deal with pepsi. :barf:

[hampstor]

They should've painted the Library tower the pepsi colours and renamed the school 'the university of pepsi'. Many years ago there was a pop machine in Science A that had a button that said 'pepsi surprise'.. it is now gone :(

[szw]

the nammer subs at u of c are good! Taste healthier than other places... I eat them a lot...haha

[thich]

how could you have something "taste healthier"? lol
i could just add tofu to just about anything and let's see if that tastes healthier ;)
