If I could give 3.5 stars I would. Decent place to start your day but limited options for food ( for now, I hear some great renovations are on the way) workers are super nice and the atmosphere is friendly.

As a University of Richmond alumn, I have many fond memories of Boatwright Library. It was usually open 24 hours a day back when I was a student, and I watched many sunrises and sunsets from the second floor silent section. There are two basement levels with reference sections, the ground floor, and the second floor up the dramatic lobby staircase. In the entrance to the building is a small coffee shop called 8:15, originally named after the earliest classes offered at UR (although now classes begin at 7:30). It has Starbucks coffee products, pastries, and some other small snack items for sale. They accept cash, card, and UR dining dollars. Food and drink is allowed in most parts of the library, and you'll often see students order pizza or Jimmy Johns to the ground floor. The basement levels are typically quiet or silent study only, as are parts of the second floor. This is taken very seriously, so you should not even whisper or open a packet of chips in silent areas. If you need to collaborate with a group or use A/V equipment, study rooms are available to be scheduled at the front desk. While it is accessible to the public during the day, please do be respectful of the fact that this is one of the primary places for students to study on campus, and that they should be prioritized. It was incredibly frustrating when I wasn't able to find a seat or the library was loud and messy because of non-students using it as a hangout spot.

They have the best spread! There is everything you can imagine here, even when the kids are out for summer the food is still great. Other campuses I have been on suck when kids are out but not u of r!

One of the best college dining halls around. You can't go wrong with the chicken, grilled or tenders

Quiet place to study (most of the time) and you can use the wifi by registering at the main desk if you're not a U of R student.
