  • 4/5 Timileyin O. 2 years ago on Google
    It’s a beautiful place with wide landscape as it keeps developing yearly. It’s been years I went there but so happy to see how the bukateria has improved and advanced in the last couple of years. My recent visit to the place really amazed me. You can get all dishes there, including local and continental. It has lounges, bar, eatery, wine shop etc. New Bukateria, Ile-Ife is located beside ETF hall, before New Market, OAU campus, Ile-Ife, Osun State.

    Located in the heart of Obafemi Awolowo University, New Bukerteria popularly know as new buka is a bukateria where you can get to relax with friends and loved ones. There is a side for grills and fast food (Guess, Banwill, Jo's etc), a section of the Bukerteria has alcohol and music (Aquilos is a great spot here) and then we have regular places for 'mama put' kinda foods.

    A place to get drinks , food , steaks and all sorts. It's got several bar, small, and salons. But the current condition of the place isn't up to what it used to be; the place is dying gradually with Jo maintenance and more sales as before.

    It's a very good place to relax and hangout with friends. It's a very controlled environment in an inconspicuous way. There is a big parking lot with 24 hours security.

    Proper coordination and grouping of restaurants. No stress on access. There's a back gate that links to the market... where you will definitely find the things you did not find in the bukateria

    The New Bukateria in Obafemi Awolowo University, Ile-Ife is an iconic facility and community of agglomerized food and drink vendors, service providers and students' religious outreach centers. It houses enigmatic places like Christ Love Fellowship (CLF) BASE4, EDEN and Mr. Banwill cuisine. As an OAU alumnus, it is a place that is reminiscent of wonderful memories that will always be part of my journey through life.

  • 5/5 Temilayo O. 4 years ago on Google
    If you are in Ife and you need a good place to eat out, chill and relax then New Bukateria, OAU should be at the top of your list. The restaurants are well arranged with ample parking space, and the food is amazing.

  • 5/5 Paradise O. 4 years ago on Google
    Here is a place every student wants to visit, either to eat good food or junks... There are restaurants where common students with little cash take delight in visiting, while the rich guys visit the expensive restaurants. Pizza shops and bar are also present in Bew Bukateria. It is a small world itself.

    Food, bar, restaurant, car park. It's the zone to chill out and have fun on Obafemi awolowo university campus. It's the only place you are permitted to smoke on campus too. The bars have loud music though. I mean super loud. Affordable restaurants too.

Forks and Fingers
Restaurant
🫤 Forks and Fingers is below the average restaurant and canteen standards to be honest. The food is mediocre, they engage in poor hygiene and the customer service is also poor. The reason for its good reputation is because it is one of the oldest standing food venues in OAU, they sell cheap and afford...
