Student Author OverviewWhat's This?

Off-campus dining definitely makes up for any shortcomings in on-campus dining. The only downside is that, unlike some campuses, Denison’s meal plan does not accommodate any of these places. Denison is really focused on being a residential campus, and they firmly believe that eating on campus is a large part of that experience. Still, sometimes the dining halls just won’t offer anything appealing, and you’ll need to look elsewhere for a meal.

Pizza is a staple of many college students’ diets, and the same holds for Denison residents. Granville and the surrounding area boast an impressive number of pizza places, from East of Chicago in Newark to Elm’s Pizza Parlor, right in Granville. If a sit-down restaurant is what you desire, there are a few options right down the hill, such as Aladdin’s Restaurant, Brew’s Café Deli, Victoria’s Parlour, and the Village Coffee Company. If you’re able to get into Newark, Heath, or Columbus, a wide palette of choices lay before you. For a nice bit of Italian, you can trust Olive Garden. If you’re in the mood for steak, Texas Roadhouse is available, too. If you’re like most college students and are on a tight budget, a low cost place like Cheng’s Buffet or Tee-Jaye’s is a great choice. Most ethnic restaurants will be farther away in Columbus, but if you go, it is worth the trip. No matter where you go, leaving behind the dining hall is always an enjoyable experience.

Off Campus Dining at Denison

If you haven't heard of Easton Mall, in Easton OH, you need to! Its the best largest shopping mall. name a restaurant they have it and another cheaper one that you haven't heard of but is awesome. Chipolte, Olive Garden, Ruby Tuesdays, and other chain restaurants are also only 15 minutes away from campus. If you don't want to drive there are great restaurants down the hill in down. There is a Chinese place and Greek Eats both in walking distance. The best place however is Brew's Cafe which is good old American Pub.

Bad Food

Options off campus are ok if you are wiling to drive 20 minutes to a bunch of restaurants. There are a few in Granville but they are not always good but they do cost less than a meal at Applebee's or Texas Roadhouse. Either driving or walking distance...there is a variety of places to eat--all better than campus dining. None offer student discounts. The best places are Elm's, Creno's, Aladins.

Quaint Local Eats

There are really cute, local places in Granville and the food is decently priced and good. Student favorites includes Brew, Victoria's Parlor, Greek Eats, and Broadway Pub. Whit's Frozen custard is an overwhelming favorite and they accept Denison dollars!
