Student Author OverviewWhat's This?

There is a vast array of options for dining out within 20 minutes of campus. There are restaurants for all kinds of income, and nearly all are student-friendly, offering coupons frequently in campus mail. For loud, fun atmospheres, there are lots of chain places like Applebee’s. However, on the flip side, there are few great date places other than Tedd’s Landing (a seafood restaurant) and BJ’s.

The only shortcoming is that, outside of Chinese take-out restaurants, the area is lacking for ethnic restaurants; nearly every restaurant would be classified as “American cuisine.” Other than the Chinese restaurants, the only other cultural foods represented are the pizza and pasta served at the Italian pizzerias. While these places are good, most of the food has more American influence than Italian. So while there are plenty of great, affordable places to eat, if you’re into exploring new cuisines, you’re going to be a little bored at SU.

Off Campus Resturants?

There is nothing but corn fields around Susquehanna University. One restaurant called Bj's which is very good but expensive. Way out of college students budgets.

Nothing Special...

Off-campus there are a few chain places like Applebees, Red Robin, Chinese, and fast food restaurants located out on the strip. None of them are amazing, more like average. There's not too many option but there it's not a complete ghost town for food. None of the places offer student discounts which is a bummer but prices aren't too bad.

More Options If You Have a Car

There are a few restaurants within walking distance (about 1 mile off campus). Some places hold odd hours. There is a great coffee shop, a cupcake place, and a bar and grille type restaurant. There are also a few pizza places, a sub shop, chinese and an upscale restaurant. If you have a car, there are even more options, mostly chain restaurants.
