I don’t know if it’s a new chef or new recipes but 2024 food was awful compared to 2023. As we come with a big conference, most of the whole group did not enjoy it along with another big conference that books the campus with us. There was a lot of food waste due to the food being very dry to eat. I will give a point to the dessert since it was good.

Has some decent options for food certain days of the week. Lines can be a bit long, especially on Falcon-Fil-A day, which isn’t even the best meal. Good environment to hang out with friends and family, though.

They played Christmas music which was nice…But it’s weird R&B Christmas music that nobody knows. It’s symbolic of the Lottie experience. Decent ideas with mediocre and oftentimes weird execution.

Delicious food. Lots of choices.

Not too bad. Pricy if you're not a student. Salad bar and deli bar stay consistent. The food is mid. Good sometimes. Depends on when and what they happen to serve. Pretty clean.

Not fine dining

I love the food here most of the time and the desert is great!

I was at Messiah University for my daughter's school tour and we ate here at the dining hall. Brought me back to my college days, it was good.

Fine dining

Good food i work for

i like the blue ribbon classics® vanilla sundae cone. this review is for them, not the lottie food. they are very tasty and there is chocolate in the tip. i am glad lottie nelson serves these beauties. this is an unrelated photo.

I am a current student at messiah and I am genuinely surprised at how bad Lottie is every day. Most students spend almost 50k a year to be at messiah and the food that is offered is so disappointing. There is next to no healthy options. Everything seems to be fried and when it is not fried it tastes like air. The lack of seasoning makes me so sad on a daily basis. Occasionally there will be some good foods, but I can assure you that none of them are healthy. Before Corona happened, the food was but, but afterwards, there is next to no options. There is no salad bar or any healthy options. The only option is a premade iceberg lettuce salad with like 1 tomato in it. The few times that I have gotten the chicken that was made here it was pink in the middle. I am contently concerned if I want to eat a meat product here. The silverware was often times dirty as well. Do not recommend. The only people who like it are the people who don't go to school here.
