Campus Dining

Located within the Naylor Student Center are the Food Hall and The Coffee House, where students can get freshly prepared meals during the week as well as ice cream, coffee, and other snacks.

Food Hall

Located in the Naylor Student Center at the heart of campus, our Food Hall provides a variety of cuisines in an “all-you-care-to-enjoy” dine-in format. Our culinary-focused team artfully prepares handcrafted, authentic foods available at multiple stations.

From the hearts of our culinary team to the mouths of our campus community you can taste the love in our award-winning food.​ Our menu is designed in a small-plate style, inviting you to enjoy dishes from each station.

In addition to our daily entrees, offerings also include made-from-scratch soups, farm fresh fruits and vegetables, crisp salads, gourmet pizzas, delicious artisan baked goods, and desserts, plus an assortment of beverages.

All food and beverage must be consumed in the Food Hall and are not offered to go. (To-go items are available at the Coffee House.)
