Reminder about Kookos restaurant lunch practices

Pay for lunch before eating

Food & Co, the company operating the student restaurant at the Sörnäinen campus, reminds students that lunch must always be paid for in advance, and the receipt must be visible on the tray. Restaurant staff may ask diners to present their receipt upon request.

The restaurant emphasises that failing to pay for lunch is considered theft, and any incidents of theft will be reported to the police.

Do not take the restaurant’s cups out of the restaurant

The restaurant has reported that a large number of its coffee cups are being taken to Kookos and Mylly facilities and are not being returned. Restaurant staff are spending an unreasonable amount of time searching for missing cups in our facilities. On the Mylly side, coffee cups are sometimes used as paint containers, rendering them unusable for the restaurant.

The restaurant’s coffee cups are intended for use only within the restaurant. Please do not take them to our facilities. If you wish to take coffee with you, you may purchase it in a disposable cup or bring your own.

Tori booths reserved for dining on weekdays from 11:00 to 13:00

The booths in front of the auditorium have been temporarily reserved for student lunch use on weekdays from 11:00 to 13:00. This change does not apply to the smallest yellow booth.

Meetings and independent work in these booths should be scheduled outside of these hours. The purpose of this change is to provide a peaceful alternative space for dining until further solutions for the development of the Tori area are implemented.

To ensure the continuation of this practice, diners are asked to maintain cleanliness by returning dishes to the restaurant and cleaning up any mess caused by dining. Wet wipes will be provided in the booths for cleaning purposes.
