Cafeterias in Lexington, KY

“My 5 week old was admitted for biliary atresia. Dr Rellinger, Martin, Dewberry did the procedure and so far all is well. It felt like we had seen so many people from the Doctors, Nurses, residents, pain management, GI, nutrition, etc and everyone was always helpful. Shout-out to the team of doctors who performed the procedure to help our girl, we are so grateful! The 4th floor nurses in the progressive care unit were amazing to us! Miroslava (heaven sent), Alan, Katie, Alivia, Ally, Kris, Amanda, are just a few who were wonderful! The cons of our experience were a couple ladies who when trying to store my Breastmilk were so rude! Telling the receptionist to tell me there was no room in their fridge (my bag was already there, it could hold more) to place my new milk. Stated that they shouldn't have to retrieve my milk ( more than happy to walk it there) and go to the cafeteria to put it in ice. I was told **Jesse** said it and a lady named Tammy was mentioned throughout. Doubt there was anything done after talking to a higher up and making a phone complaint. Last con was we were discharged and still needed the medicine for my daughter. The Retail Pharmacy took **3 HOURS** AFTER DISCHARGE to bring the medicine. All that was said was they were slammed.“

“Food is pretty hit or miss. All the places that serve the same thing are mid, but the workers are generally pretty nice. The cafeteria itself is pretty chill, realistically a 3.5/5.

For fellow broke college students, I recommend getting at least one of the green takeout boxes, I prefer 2 (one for dry food, the other for wet food). This will help you cut your meal expenses from ~$12 per meal down to ~$5.

Dietary restrictions: They have a place for people w/ food allergies, as well as a vegan restaurant and a salad bar.“

“A great resource for those in need!“

“Champs is the University of Kentucky’s main dining
hall. I chose it because it's where I get most of my meals in. The hall serves dinner, lunch, and
breakfast which is very convenient. The food comes with a variety even serving Mexican food
and different types of pizzas. And they even serve desert after meals if that’s what you are
craving. The food at champs is above average in my opinion and is definitely worth getting meal
swipes for. The staff can be mean sometimes but you just have to look past it. And the pizza
provided in the photo above is probably my favorite choice for lunch. Champs is very good if
you go near the times of when the food is being served because if you come late a lot of the food
options are limited and it can be very crowded at times. Other than that its a great spot to eat“
