Starting university and living away from home for the first time can be both exciting and overwhelming, especially when it comes to planning meals. If you're not confident in the kitchen or want to make life easier, our pre-paid meal packages are the perfect solution.
With delicious, nutritionally balanced meals served Monday to Friday, you’ll enjoy peace of mind knowing you’re eating well, and that it’s already taken care of financially. No last-minute meal stress, no extra budgeting worries, and no panic-buying noodles when money’s tight. Just good food, sorted.
Even better? You’ll save money too, with up to 20% off the full price when you choose our Bromley by Bow Full Year package.
Meal plans aren’t just practical — they’re social too! Dining in our vibrant student spaces is a great way to meet new people, enjoy a change of scenery from your flat, and be part of a friendly and welcoming community.
