What Students Are Saying

After a while the dinning on campus becomes the same and you get tired of it. Not many choices.
Tiffani from Hoyt, KS
There's vegetarian options, although a little limited. Always pasta, salad, pizza, sandwhiches, dessert, and grill and main course options. There's also hex, which you get a certain amount of money to spend in and there's a subway, chipolte, and a few other options there. Finally there's a Starbucks with those same 'dining dollars'.
Carissa - Valley Falls, KS
the food doesn't sound the greatest, but ramen and starbucks are good.
Marissa from Kingman, KS
Honestly, Emporia only gets a 4 because of La Hacienda and Pizza Ranch. La Ha , as the college kids call it, has amazing and cheap Mexican food! Pizza Ranch has good Pizza and they have fried chicken and mashed potatoes too! A great buffet to go to, and they offer student discounts!
Abbey from Wichita, KS
I have only ate in the cafe a couple times but it was excellent food. There are so many items to choose from and it's pretty cheap.
Crystal from Paxico, KS
esu dining is a great place were you can find all your favorites at once. in addition to the cafetiere we have a shop that is called the hornet express that has snacks when you are on the go, a sub and sandwich bar, a burrito and nacho bar, and last but not least a smoothie station.
