Founders can have its ups and downs but always offers a healthy meal and is constantly improving. I've been eating there daily for 3 years now and Ive always enjoyed the food. Too many people that only ever eat their hamburgers and hot dogs complain about variety and quality.
Vegetarian options: There are always options for vegetarians.
Dietary restrictions: They list all of the ingredients that may cause issues on foods and the Clean plate sections offers food that doesnt contain the most common allergens like nuts, dairy, seafood, gluten.

Founders has a way about it, whether it’s the under cooked PINK throughout chicken or for that matter any meat, or the burnt hamburger patties, that are just dry, and almost never warm. Or the milk that they “forgot to replace” coming back from thanksgiving break, when you take a bite of your cereal and get a chunk of curdled milk, that of course is lukewarm. 😻The desserts are something special, they add nuts to every desert or find some other way to make it undesirable. 😤The fountain machine is always having issues and the ice cream freezer is locked or empty when you want ice cream. 😑Some of the staff is very friendly, but another part would probably rather be trying to find a needle in a haystack. 😹The only place there where you can get a consistent ish decent meal is the waffle bar, but no one wants waffles that have a burnt taste to them for 3 meals a day. 😭 Please Park Hurst dining find new recipes that are half decent and hard to mess up, I dread having to eat at founders (I would say every day but that’s a lie bc some days I’d rather be hungry than eat there)… I don’t pay outrageous (mandatory) amounts of money for the most half assed food.

someone thinks there better
Sometimes its good once in a blue moon. Grad students who work here are horribly underpaid. There is often mold in bread and they reuse leftovers. This place is a human health violation

There is almost nothing enjoyable about this place. Everything is subpar at best and the things that I could consider bearable are served once in a blue moon. I hate that I was forced into an unlimited meal plan for two years. A complete waste of my money. I hope parkhurst gets booted as soon as the contract ends. This place sucks and I can’t wait for the day that I don’t have to experience it anymore.

the food is actually terrible. I have been severely sick on multiple occasions because of undercooked food.
Dietary restrictions: will make you sick!

after eating here for 3 years, I have only had worse experiences happening. Today I walked in with HALF of the place blocked off so they don’t have to clean, I had to wait 10min for two pancakes, which were evenly raw. Thanks, I will now be throwing up. I also have had options of uncooked and somehow burnt pizza or chicken, hotdogs, and other heavy meats for lunch and dinner for all three years. They are always dry and over seasoned with salt and pepper or not seasoned at all. And somehow freshman year I got food poisoning from their SALAD. Glad I’m leaving. Thanks Parkhurst for ruining Founders.

Average food, sometimes it's ok, sometimes it's awful. Pretzel bites fire though. Paper plate sucks though.
