What Students Are Saying
There is variety in the caf, from cereal bar that's open 24/7 to the station where you will find the special if the day.
Anneleisse from Castle Rock, CO
Fresh food grown from know farmers.
Davian from Clinton, MD
They serve a variety of food. They have a papa johns, star bucks, and a subway as well.
Michaela from Altavista, VA
I eat at subway or papa johns most of the time. I don't really like eating in the caf. The crazy cuke and hot dog cart are very good also.
A student
Sometimes you get good food and other times it is not that great. You just have a 50/50 chance when it comes to the Dining Hall, but you have subway and papa johns plus a lot of other places in town if you have the money to spend.
Gabriella from Chesapeake, VA
The food is varied every night but they do always have rice and beans every night. I like how they get fruits and veggies from the Agriculture program on campus or from local farms.
Zachary from Scotland, MD
Be careful. It's easy to treat the caf like an all-you-can-eat buffet.
Micheal from Chesapeake, VA
The food in the cafe is okay but there is not that much variety on campus.
