What Students Are Saying
There is only one cafeteria on campus since SMC is so small. It is pretty good quality, but it gets old after a while. It is clean, but the hours are a little inconvenient (late night starts at 9 and ends at 11, so if you are studying at midnight and get hungry, you better have some snacks in your dorm room).
Alexis from Morro Bay, CA
mostly have the same food served.
Amelia from Stockton, CA
One of my favorite things about Saint Mary's College is their dinning hall and food options. They offer a Cart de Blanche meal plan which is unlimited food at almost any time of day or night. As well as the meal plan the food is amazing.
Maxwell from Concord, CA
Personally, absolutely hated the food. But I am beyond picky. Get a second opinion.
A Happy Student
Food is great! I ate there while i was on campus and would never eat any where else if i was on campus.
Jaqueline from Los Angeles, CA
In all honesty, the food could be better. By mid-year you get disgusted with the food because it is always the same. It is very easy to get tired of the cafeteria.
Liz
The food is always good although it can be repetitive.
