While I’ve attended an embarrassing amount of meetings solely for this purpose, it’s important to be prepared for disappointment when assuming clubs may have food. At this point in the year, many Cal students have caught on to how club meetings or info-sessions offer pizza, for example. More substantial food is less reliably available but definitely worth seeking out. Platform Artspace – a hidden treasure by the law school – has complimentary coffee twice a week while you enjoy their free art exhibition. The Engineering Student Center, for example, has coffee and tea available every day, as well as a plentiful supply of snacks. Okay, so you won’t necessarily be able to get a full meal from these on-campus spots, but I’ve saved my fair share of $5 coffee trips. I’ve spent too much time online researching the best ways to save money on food, but most of these websites are very cookie-cutter and usually have little relevance to my situation, so I’ve compiled a list of ways I’ve personally found cheap meals (or even snacks) that are specific to the Berkeley student. Fast food is pricey too the first time my dad came to visit me, he nearly lost it when he saw that Taco Bell tacos go for over three dollars each – the same tacos that he bought for 59 cents growing up.
