Student Author OverviewWhat's This?

While the dining halls are definitely no place to take a date, or anyone for that matter, to have a nice meal, they are adequate for everyday use. Georgia Tech is served by two dining halls, Brittain and Woodruff, which are located at opposite ends of the campus. The quality of the food has improved steadily over the last five years. Breakfast food is always your best bet at these dining halls, and students are free to make their own sandwiches and salads at the salad bar, if they choose to do so.

For a satisfying lunch or breakfast with a professor, friend, coworker, or anyone else, there are always two choices on campus: the Student Center Commons and the Student Center Food Court. Both the Student Center Commons and Food Court offer an exceptional variety of choices for lunch, including Chick-fil-A, Burger King, Jackets, and even a Starbucks.

North Ave Dining Hall Rocks

Georgia Tech has a brand new dining hall called North Ave. I can't live without this place! It is open 24 hours except for weekends and has about 10 different food stations. My favorite is the asian food area which has a made to order Wok. You can also get egg rolls, pot stickers, crab rangoon and Pho soup. The staff is very friendly, the managers really care about the food and the students. The food is the best I have ever eaten in a dining hall and the place is very clean. Finally a great place to eat for freshman at GT. They should just close Brittian because I don't want to ever go there again. The meal plans at GT is a great value. If you get the unlimited plan, you can go eat as often as you want. North Ave dining hall is the new place to eat and be seen at GT. Thanks to everyone a Tech that brought this much need improvement to GT.

Food at Georgia Tech: Average Unless You Buck-Up

One thing Georgia Tech Dining is notorious for: the awful freshman dining halls. Seriously, if you can avoid Brittain for your entire life, please do. If not, hit up the build-your-own-burrito line because that was probably what I ate for 95% of meals in Brittain. However, we did JUST get a new dining hall (so new it hasn't opened yet. it will be opening for Fall 2011) and I've heard the food is good there so GT Dining may redeem itself.

As far as other dining options on campus goes, there's a pretty good selection of popular eateries in the Student Center, although the Student Center gets very crowded during lunchtime so be prepared for lengthy lines. There's a Chick-fil-A, Taco Bell, Subway, Pizza Hut, Einstein's Bagels and Dunkin' Donuts, as well as another food court upstairs that has non-name brand (but actually pretty good) foods like a sandwich place, Chinese/Japanese place and a Mexican place. So you can usually cover your cravings. However these places are NOT covered with meal plan (that only covers dining halls) so you'll need to have some extra cash to eat here (or an unlimited meal plan which puts money on your buzzcard).

Better Food Options

They need more dining options near residence halls besides the dining halls which are overpriced.
