What Students Are Saying
The food is tolerable, but Lyon offers Flex dollars that can be spent at local restaurants if you get sick of the cafeteria meals.
Spencer from Jonesboro, AR
There are plenty of places on campus to eat and several good places to eat outside of campus
Cheyenne from West Fork, AR
It's average cafeteria food, but the staff really make it worth it. They'll chat with you and make your day if you're down. The dessert is award winning and top notch however.
Katheryn from Batesville, AR
Food selection is average to good. I am one of those guys who will eat whatever you put on my plate, but maybe a few more options would be nice. Of course, the bakery was amazing!!! I know where I will be going each day ;)
Joshua from Bentonville, AR
Food is alright, Brenda's sweets are amazing and the common's bistro has some good food and some great frappe's. However, in my opinion the people here complaining were coddled by their parent's food. It's perfectly find food.
John from Allen, TX
The new Edwards Commons Student Center is very nice and the newest building on campus. The food is sub-par but sodexo is constantly taking comment cards to figure out how to improve.
