Yes, and? You're free to go to the cafeteria and buy food or leave and go buy food. And there's usually at least a chair. What do you expect, a Marriott?
The father is the wife (and baby's) advocate in the hospital, and should leave as little as possible. You need to be there for every test and consultation.
So yah, they should be bringing the father food, and there should be a bed for him because the father is critical in having good care for the wife.
