What Students Are Saying

The cafe has a lot of great food options. They have a Pizza Hut booth. Their burgers and cheese sticks are good too.
Ramina from Niles, IL
Vending machines around every corner and in every student lounge, along with a cafeteria equipped with amazing grilled chicken sandwiches, ten different Tazo teas, microwaves and more vending machines, and fresh coffee every morning.
Polina from Niles, IL
i think that oakton community college has a wide variety of food choices in the cafeteria. i love visiting new restaurants and trying new foods because it let's me have a little taste of the world. i plan on traveling across the globe to experience authentic food when i am older.
