What Students Are Saying
If you're looking for a scoop of ice-cream or a nice roast beef dinner, you're just a swipe away. From 7am to 1:30am, there are many options to choose from that would satisfy your cravings. The university offers a market packed with your everyday needs, Einstein's bagel for your breakfast meal, and a deli for those who want to watch their weight.
Isaac from Bridgeport, CT
Downtown hartford is fun. Northeast Park.
Melissa from Smithtown, NY
There are so many options here from the main Commons cafeteria, to Gengrass Student Union, to Konover Market; each place is unique and offers a wide variety of delicious choices.
Averi from Waterbury, CT
The food here is always amazing.
Here's what you can look forward to at Commons, the main dining hall (where you'll probably eat 99% of your meals):
Breakfast: eggs, bacon, sausage, and one or two other miscellaneous breakfast items.
Lunch: the grill will have either hamburgers, chicken sandwiches, or something similar.
Dinner: the most common themes are Italian and Spanish, but it's always something different.
If you don't like what's being served at any time, there's also the deli (which makes sandwiches), the plural soups and/or chilis, the kosher station, the salads/fruit station, and the miscellaneous station that makes anything from omelettes to Chinese food, depending on the time of day. There's also a bakery that makes delicious pastries and other dessert items. Failing all that, there's a few wafflemakers that students can use.
Because all of these are contained within Commons, they're all-you-can-eat.
However, there are also many non-dining-hall, non-all-you-can-eat options.
