Student Author OverviewWhat's This?

The food on Emory’s campus is so-so. At first, freshmen are excited by the idea of a food court featuring a Burger King and Chick-fil-A, but the excitement soon wears off when they realize that these are sub-par, food-court versions of their favorite fast-food chains. The freshman dining hall in the DUC features all types of food imaginable and serves food from early in the morning until late in the evening, but the food is far from amazing. Breakfasts are the best meals, and the rotating menu does provide variety, although it still gets repetitive after a while. Cox Food Court does offer a small bakery, a salad station, fresh sushi, a home-cooked Southern style eatery, and a smoothie place for those looking to avoid the DUC and fast-food. The Depot offers late-night mediocre food service daily and is a hangout for studying students. Caffè Antico, located above the Carlos Museum, offers probably the healthiest and best food on campus, although it is a bit pricey for a sandwich place.

Freshmen are required to purchase a meal plan through the school, which allows them to eat a certain number of meals at the DUC, and provides a certain amount for eating at Cox or The Depot. Overall the food on campus is just okay, but certainly livable, and provides just enough variety to get through freshman year. It is easy to be fooled into thinking Emory has great food for the first few weeks of school, but the realization of its general blandness hits all freshmen around October.

COX!!!

I love cox. the variety is great and health conscious. I buy most of my meals there. DUC can get old with limited options and doesn't open early enough on weekends for athletes. Love the variety of Zayas and emory village though! Especially the new chipotle!

The Duc

There's always something to get there, and its always open. The desserts are lacking sometimes but the duc staff is always great. Its so convenient when you just get out of practice or classes and you're starving!!

Food Is Pretty Good.

The dinning hall has pretty decent food choice. There is something for everyone. Plus, there are other outside food vendors that are located in the "food court",next to the hospital, that you have access t (i.e Chickfala, Pizza Hut, Starbucks, etc.)
