Student Author OverviewWhat's This?

Off-campus dining at Geneva is a must, to break the monotony of Alex’s, and because there’s a great local culinary scene. Scads of little diners, dives, and holes-in-the-wall dish out great food for great prices, usually $10 or less. A 10-minute drive offers a range of chain restaurants like Applebee's and Eat’n Park (a Pittsburgh staple), and fast food—students love Sheetz, Wendy’s, and Subway—but the real gems are the local places. Right across the street, you’ve got Beaver Falls Coffee and Tea, local pizza chain Pizza Joe’s, and Chong’s Korean run by the sweetest little Korean woman. Two blocks up the street is Matty Goff’s Café for a homey lunch. For a short drive or a long walk, downtown establishments include Athens Family Restaurant with American and Greek diner food, Oram’s Donuts with enormous sticky buns for 89 cents, and D&G Pizza for 75 cents a slice. A longer drive offers any kind of food you could want: lots of pizza, lots of Italian, an incredible Mexican place, a few Chinese restaurants and buffets—you name it, it’s around.

BFCAT coffee, Pizza Joe’s, Papa John’s pizza, and late nights at Eat’n Park are Geneva staples. At least once at Geneva, you must eat an Oram’s donut and visit Handel’s ice cream. Ask a local how to find Tinitique—it’s more than worth the 15-minute drive, and brave an adventure to Pizza Dude, a sketchy storefront with gruff manners and delicious pizza. The best way to find restaurants is talking to students and locals because everyone has a different favorite. You can keep it comfortable with the chains or try a local business—either way, there are innumerable options.

Places to Eat Near Geneva.

There's not a ton of places to go within walking distance except a couple of pizza places and Sheetz. There's also the Beaver Falls Coffee & Tea Company, which is awesome. If you have a car, there's plenty more restaurants within a ten-minute drive.

Dining Off Campus

The dining off campus is not as good as it should be. The best places to eat are 20 minutes away and the not so bad places are 10-15 minutes away. We only get student discounts at one pizza parlor. SO the cost for off campus dining is pretty high.
