About Rachel Carson/Oakes Dining Hall

Rachel Carson/Oakes Dining Hall offers a church-like ambiance with stunning views and ample seating. Brunch features tasty sausage links and decent pancakes. The fried fish and flavorful rice stand out positively. However, the use of disposable utensils due to a broken dish machine is wasteful. Vegetarian options are limited to either with meat, cheese, and eggs, or vegan dishes. Despite the suburban setting, this dining hall surprises with delicious meals like Linguine Noodles with spicy shrimp fra diavolo, making it one of the best on campus. An 8/10 recommendation for dining in an isolated college environment.
