Student Author OverviewWhat's This?

Students often prefer not to get a meal plan at Rollins because of the abundance of restaurants on Park Avenue. Whatever you are craving, you are guaranteed to find it. There are many nice restaurants that students go to for dinner and drinks with friends. Steakhouses, sushi places, Thai food—you name it! A lot of the restaurants on Park Avenue are pricey, since Winter Park is a wealthy and mostly upper-class town.

Although there are a lot of upscale dining options, there are also a variety of fast food-type restaurants, as well. A popular attraction among Rollins folk is the Power House Café, where students can grab a smoothie or a bite to eat in between classes. There is also the Pita Pit, Tropical Smoothie Café, Starbucks, and more. Frozen yogurt is a popular treat among Florida residents, and there are several different frozen yogurt shops around campus. Most of the restaurants near Rollins get crowded on the weekends. It is always a good idea to plan ahead and make a reservation. Honestly, Park Avenue has everything you could ever desire and more; however, students who have cars can also venture farther away from school and into Orlando for even more options.

Pricey!

The off-campus dining options within a one mile radius of Rollins College are delicious but will break the bank. My favorite restaurant is Park Plaza Gardens, but with a $12-$18 lunch menu, this is reserved for special occasions.

Expensive but Good

The food in the area of Winter Park tends to be very expensive. Its better to just eat in the campus center and use your R Card.

Park Avenue

PArk Avenue is a great place for off-campus dining. There is a wide variety of different cuisines at all sorts of price. There are some restaurants such as Luma on Park or Pretto (the first offers a wide mixed cousine offer, the second one a new italian place) are more pricy. But there are also more accessible places such as Tropical Smoothie, which is delicious. All these options are walking distance. If you are in position of a car then Winter Park Village is really nice and offers biggest chains such as Cheescake Factory, P.F. Changs, Brio ...
