Student Author OverviewWhat's This?

The cafeteria food is not generally regarded as being amazing cuisine. But the glory of BYU meal options is that you don’t have to live on cafeteria food alone! BYU offers a couple of different meal plan options; the most popular (and slightly more expensive) option is Dining Plus. This option gives students a daily allowance that they can spend where they like on campus. It’s great if you don’t want to trudge back to the cafeteria for lunch, you can easily grab something on campus at the Cougareat or one of the cafés.

On-campus dining should be enjoyed while on Dining Plus freshman year, because you quickly realize later that without Dining Plus, eating on campus can get really expensive, really quickly. The food is pretty good—nothing spectacular, but nothing revolting. There are not a lot of low-fat options readily available, so beware of the Freshman 15. Everything is really convenient, and location is exceptional, so using the dining plan freshman year is highly recommended.

Cougareat?

While the campus "cougareat" (or dining area) does provide a fair amount of variety, I am not particularly fond of it. Many students like to take a lunch brake at the cougareat which leads to crowded lines and tables for a few overpriced meal options. I prefer to go to the creamery and pick out some fresh fruit.

Cougar-Eat

The cougar-eat is a great place to grab a bite between classes. The service is always quick, even though it's usually crowded. This is great since everyone is always in a hurry to get to class. There are all the fast food options available, and always plenty of places to sit. It's right in the middle of campus, which makes it quick and easy to get to during a busy day.

BYU: Food

There is a great variety of food around campus for a variety of prices. A student/visitor could find just about anything he/she wanted to eat somewhere on campus. However, the price may not be ideal. The cafeteria is too expensive unless a student has a meal plan, which are over priced as well.

Did You Know?

Students who live off campus can buy a meal plan. It is good at all eateries on campus, and it’s a nice alternative to packing a lunch everyday.
