Student Author OverviewWhat's This?

When at college, what you’re given is what you eat.
Clemson is no exception. Students say the food is tolerable, and there are certain places that are better than others. Clemson House and Schilleter are agreed to be better dining halls than Harcombe. Other alternatives to dining hall food are the Hendrix Center’s East Side Food Court and the Fernow Street Café.

The food on campus does not leave much to complain about. There are many options to choose from, and there is something for everyone (Clemson makes an effort to offer more health-conscious food choices). The only complaints students have are about the dining hall hours. Harcombe stops serving dinner at 7:30 p.m. and Schilleter at 7 p.m. Most students stock up on snacks for those late-night cravings, and you can always use your Tiger Stripe card at Papa John’s for delivery.

Ok...

The dining hall food is okay at best. They are very repetitive and they often times don't serve edible food. There are not that many healthy options in the dinning halls. Also, they are often times too busy at lunch to get a table. Wendy's and Chick-fil-A are always the best places to grab something in a rush.

All You Can Eat

I personally love the dining facilities at Clemson. They're scattered throughout the campus so you always have options. Being on the Clemson cycling team I burn a lot of calories and must eat a lot to maintain and replenish my form. The fact that the dining halls are all you can eat makes it that much easier for me to get a full course meal for a reasonable price.

Dining Halls

I haven't eaten at the campus dining halls since my freshman year. The food is so-so for the expensive price of $8. Most of the time, the food is pretty average; they try to do different things, but don't exactly pull it off well. So most of the time they stick to what's 'popular' or easy to stand which makes it boring.
