What Students Are Saying

The food is great, as the offer a selection each day, and vegan meals as well, with desert bars and everything, and a cafe is open late at night for those who get a sudden urge. The drawback is the cycling of food, as it will steadily repeat for many specific meals, though those don't have to be chosen, as there is always something else to choose.

Patriot Hall is the dining hall on campus, and while there are some iffy foods, for the most part, Patriot serves really good food. The staff is all really nice and friendly. Patriot is open from 7 AM-7:30 PM. Additionally, there is a cafe, which is open weekdays 7 AM-midnight and weekends 7:30 PM-2 AM.

Food is good.

The food here is pretty good. It�s not like in high school where there is only a line and you have 2 choices. Nor is it like some colleges that have fast food contracts serving their students because that can be unhealthy. At the Mount there us a section for almost anything. A full salad bar so you can make your own fresh salad. A sandwich and wraps area, made to order just the way you want it. A home food section, were they will have good meals like mash potatoes, chicken, etc. Pizza area, some nights they let you make your own pizza. The grill of course with burgers fries, the usual. And the desert section with all sorts of things going on from cakes and pies, to fresh baked cookies. Another thing to note is separate from the cafeteria is the cafe. It has a lot of the similar foods and they are open till 12 and sometimes 2am.

the food is not the greatest, but it still tastes good. i have heard that they use food additives, but i am not completely sure. it is just a rumor. the desserts are awesome and they have plenty of choices to choose from, depending on what you're craving that day.
Justin from Clarksburg, MD
During my visits to the campus, I have thoroughly enjoyed my meals. They have a wide variety of choices for all meals. The menu has encouraged me to try new things.
