Went with my son for student orientation in June. Good food choices and good customer service. Went so smoothly. Very well organized. A gentleman came and informed us of the different meal plan options are available for commuters.

They’ve been struggling on their food as of late. I wanted to get a corn chowder so I did…it’s more watery than anything.

The food is OK. Selections are slim. Their veggie burgers are mush. The kitchen staff are less than cheery.

The staff is wonderful and they deserve all of the praise- by staff I mean cashiers and the people actually handling the food. However the food is overpriced (especially if you’re on a forced dining plan) and overall underwhelming. It can be tough if you have any dietary restrictions, despite what they claim.The upper management is full of crooks, and I highly recommend not eating here if you have a choice in solidarity with the resident students who do not have a choice. I hardly use two meals a week here, and I've lived on campus for four of the past six years. Too bad for me, no refunds or lower priced meal options.Oh, and $5.50 for a plain grilled cheese when they changed the bread to thinner, cheaper bread? Might have been worth it when they used higher quality bread, but now? Absolute rip off.

Been coming here for five years. Over that time, I've been an undergrad student who hasn't paid attention to the management system and only really had an opinion once the prices raised it they took something off their menu. The majority of the staff doesn't make me feel like a college student, but just another customer, which I love. The price increase in the past year or two made me seek out other options at times, and the quality of food prepared by students as opposed to that prepared by fill time employees does show through. But with great variety, a well thought out grab and go system, I can't complain much.
