Store listing

Full description

Pool is the food deals app for UChicago. 2-for-1 açaí bowls at Deep Purpl. 2-for-1 subs at Subway. More Hyde Park restaurants are on the lineup, and the app tells you the day a deal drops. How it works Book a time in the app. Show your Live Pass at the counter. Pay the restaurant for one. Pool never touches the money and takes no cut. What to know Each deal is yours once every 30 days. Every window holds a limited number of spots, so on a busy day you can miss it. Book early. Restaurants set their own hours and terms, and the app shows you both before you book. Your pass carries your name and a clock that ticks, so a screenshot is worth nothing at the counter. Friends Add friends and see which deals they used. Never what they spent. Who can use it Verified UChicago students, with a uchicago.edu email. Pool is free and there is nothing to pay in the app. Deals go live Monday, September 28, 2026, the first day of fall quarter.

What's new

Walk in and use a deal. When a spot is open, tap Use now at the counter, show your pass and pay for one. You can still book a time if you'd rather plan ahead. Home now opens on a deal you can use today, like 2-for-1 subs at Subway. If a place is closed, tap Remind me and Pool tells you when it opens. Most deals are 2-for-1, so bring someone. Invite a friend from the deal page. Each deal is yours once every 30 days.
