Midnight bites

“Midnight Bites” – Hostel Night Snack Service

Concept

A late-night snack delivery service inside (or just outside) the hostel that provides affordable, tasty, and easy-to-eat food items when students crave something after mess hours.

 

 

 

 

How It Works

  1. Menu:
  • Quick snacks: Maggi, sandwiches, momos, pakoras, fries, rolls.
  • Ready-to-eat items: Instant noodles, cup noodles, biscuits, chips.
  • Comfort food: Hot chocolate, coffee, milkshakes, lemonade.
  • Midnight special: Combo boxes like “Chill Pack” (Maggi + Cold Drink + Chips).
Ordering:
  • WhatsApp group/Instagram page where students can place orders.
  • QR codes on hostel notice boards for instant menu + order access.
Delivery:
  • A small team (even 2-3 students) delivering directly to hostel rooms/common areas.
  • Option for “self-pickup” to cut costs.
Pricing:
  • Keep it pocket-friendly (₹30–₹120 range).
  • Offer loyalty cards or bundle deals like “Buy 5 Maggi, get 1 free”.

 

 

 

 

 

Why It Works

  • Students often get hungry post 10 PM when mess/cafeteria is closed.
  • Cheap, comfort food sells fast at night.
  • Creates a “hangout vibe” around midnight cravings.

 

 

 

 

 

Extra Edge

Partner with local kirana shops for bulk snack supplies.

  • Provide subscription packs (e.g., ₹999 for 20 midnight snacks/month).
  • Add a games + snack night corner in hostel lounge once a week to attract more crowd.
