How to Order from the Nest

Whether you’re ordering catering for an event or booking food for an in-house event, follow these steps:

    1. Email nest@nait.ca with the following information 7 business days before your event:

        • Your club name and banking number

        • Your name and email (as the club contact)

        • Pickup date and time

        • Your full food order, including any dietary or religious restrictions

    2. Receive and review the quote from the Nest team.

        • Request revisions if needed.

    3. Submit a Purchase Request on ookslife.ca and attach the quote.

        • All club signing authorities must approve the request before it proceeds.

    4. Once your Purchase Request is approved by NAITSA Campus Clubs, send the confirmation email to nest@nait.ca to finalize and secure your order.

    Day-of payments are not accepted unless pre-arranged.

    If You’re Picking Up Catering for Another Campus Location

    If your catering order will be picked up from the Nest and served elsewhere on campus:

    • You must submit an Event Submission on ookslife.ca.
    • In the form, check off that the event includes food.
    • Your club will be responsible for transporting and serving the food—this means you must:
      • Have a student with a valid Food Safety Certificate on-site.
      • Complete and submit an Alberta Health Services (AHS) Food Activity Form.

    See the Student Prepared Food page for full requirements and guidelines.

    Important Notes

    • Clubs must email Nest Eatery at least 7 business days prior to their event to arrange their quote.
    • Quotes expire, so order early to avoid delays.

    • Once an order is confirmed, no changes will be accepted.
    • If the event is cancelled within 48 hours, the Nest may charge a 25% cancellation fee.
    • For large orders, bring a cart or wagon (book one through CHEQROOM if needed).
    • Clubs are responsible for Nest Eatery equipment while it’s in their possession.
