The food tastes good and there is plenty of it, but it makes me sick every time I eat it, for the whole day, like I have food poisoning. It's because there is canola oil in everything.

Amazing food and diverse taste. Can be hard to find seating at times and lines can get long. Rarely there will be no good options as well.

Hampshire Dining Commons is one of UMass Amherst's Student Dining Commons.

Like other dining commons, they utilize a rotational menu of foods from across the world. One unique feature of Hampshire is that it doesn't serve any soda, instead opting to be more health conscious by serving fruit drinks and locally sourced milk instead.

The serving area is a circular design, with seating on the outside. There isn't that much seating in the building, but enough to get by.

Food is pretty good, but many of the options are served at other dining halls as well. They do typically host a few special events here, especially the Princeton Review's food celebration.

All you can eat lunch for $17. The selection was impressive! Lots of vegetarian options. I am not a student and came with my husband who is a UMass alumni. We had an amazing lunch! That being said, I saw a lot of food wastage around while there. It's always a difficult balance between choosing tasty food and making sure $17 is worth it. Since it's a university campus, I am hoping they can evaluate how to reduce food wastage while providing good value to students.

Early May 2024 We were at UMASS for an Ultimate Frisbee Tournament and boy was it fun. One of the points of coming to pick up our boy was the discount at the Cafeteria. A great perk for having the tournament there. We went in and it was STAR WARS day and there were lightsabers and vader aprons and blue milk. I went straight for the Peet's Coffee since it was a long day. Then I walked around with my kids and chose item after item after item. There were screens showing one of the Taken movies which was hard to pull away from but overall the team came in and it was somewhat hard to find a place to sit for a big group. One thing I noticed was everyone was on their phone and not many were sitting and talking. Interesting. Great food and great atmosphere. When someone dropped something and it broke the whole place busted out clapping.

Dietary restrictions: My youngest has an egg and peanut allergy. They are very good about informing people about the contents of the food. He didn't have an issue. We were careful of course but he didn't have an issue.

Kid-friendliness: My family all went to get a view or an idea about college life on a Saturday night. The food is so good and so varied.
