Student Author OverviewWhat's This?

Clark Atlanta’s main eatery, the Café (William H. Crogman Dining Hall), provides what seems to be a variety of food for the first few months, but then suddenly the meals become extremely repetitive. For breakfast, the Café offers everything from fresh fruit to cereal to hot-buttered grits (yummm!!!), sausage, eggs, make-it-yourself waffles, and some of best bacon the South has ever seen. For lunch, the Café usually offers its beloved students a chance to journey outside the U.S. with their spin on different cultural tastes such as Chinese lo mien or Italian spaghetti with homemade meatballs. For dinner, the cooks usually attempt to make a meal that sort of reminds you of home-cooking. The best thing about the Café is that for lunch and dinner you can always choose to eat pizza, a burger and fries, salad, or breakfast food, if you’re not into the special meal that they have planned for the day.

The Panther Den, Bumstead Hall, and Jazzman’s are food courts
that are only open at certain times of the day. Bumstead Hall offers similar food to the Café, but they provide a different selection of home-style meals that include (but are not limited to) fried pork chops, tacos, and cheese dip. Bumstead also hosts a semi-annual party/barbeque that gives Clark Atlanta students time to fellowship while they eat. Jazzman’s does make what many students consider Atlanta’s greatest smoothies, along with brownies, cookies, and other in-between-class snacks.

What More Could You Want

The dining hall is the main source of most students food. Because the hall is open from 7 am until 11 pm with a few closing breaks in between, most students eat here. There are a variety of options everyday. There is a grill station, salad bar, cold sanddwich station, oriental station, hot meal station, as well as desert and pizza. There is also a World of Wings and Jazzman's cafe. During the later hours of the night there is a mobile White Tent as well as Mr. Everything's that prepares hot meals, or late night snacks. The best part about all of these places to eat is most of them either except our "flex dollars" that come with our meal plans or have student discounts and accept our student IDs.
