What Students Are Saying
Compared to other schools, the food at University of California Riverside is delicious and offers much variety. The chefs at University of California Riverside do take into consideration the suggestions of students and work to improve taste and quality. With this, University of California Riverside not only uses meal swipes as a way to obtain food, but offers dining dollars. Dining dollars are provided into the meal plan as an option that students can use to buy food from Starbucks, Coffee Bean, convenience stores on campus and in dorms, as well as fast food places with burgers, sandwiches, chicken nuggets and more.
