The term "mess" in relation to military canteens originates from the French word "meseler," meaning to serve food. Historically, it referred to the communal dining areas where soldiers would gather to eat. Over time, "mess" evolved to encompass not just the dining facilities but also the meals served, leading to the term "mess hall" for dining areas and "mess kit" for the equipment used for eating.
In British English, the word for cafeteria is often "canteen." This term is commonly used to describe a dining area in schools, workplaces, or military settings where meals are served. Some may also refer to it as a "dining hall" in certain contexts, particularly in educational institutions.
