Student Author OverviewWhat's This?

Everyone remembers the food in high school. Well, once you get to college you can finally say goodbye to all of that now that you have the option of eating off campus whenever you want. And, for being such a small town, College Station actually has a wide variety of restaurants, and you will be able to find almost anything you crave, from Mexican food to soups and salads. Not to mention, College Station is home to the original Freebirds—a burrito joint where you can put whatever you want in a single burrito, and where you can sign your name on the wall.

Northgate houses many restaurants and bars that are within walking distance of campus. There are also some quaint little places in downtown Bryan for those special date nights. Also, since there’s such a strong international presence in the area, there’s also a good mix of authentic international restaurants. So, whether you’re looking for something quick and cheap to munch on with friends or a more formal evening, there is a place for you to eat in College Station.

Off-Campus Eating

There are a lot of options for off campus dining. There is convenient location for walking for the on-campus residents at Northgate (strip of restaurants and other entertainment). However lots of kids have cars and most live off campus after freshmen year, so there is plenty of opportunity to eat off campus!
