Student Author OverviewWhat's This?

USF has three dining rooms for students; the Fresh Food Company in the Argos Center, the Bulls Den Café in the Andros Center, and Juniper-Poplar Hall. All of these are buffet-style for the most part, with options for every eating lifestyle. All are a part of a student’s meal plan; one swipe each time offers unlimited food for that visit.

If students are looking for a little variety, then the student union, known as the Marshall Student Center, is the place to go. At the Marshall Center, they have a food court-style eating area that can get really crowded during peak meal times. They have a Sbarro, Moe's Southwest Grill, Chick-fil-A, and a Subway. There is also a Beef 'O' Brady’s and a fine dining restaurant called "On Top of the Palms." During the morning, an Einstein Bros. Bagels is open to start your day off right. Overall, USF has plenty to offer anyone at a reasonable price. You get plenty of food for the price you pay, and there are so many different options from which to choose.

Food and Dining Options

The food is decent at the campus in Tampa but unfortunately most employees are not that friendly at the Sarasota campus and act as if they don't want you there. The whole experience behind eating at the campus isn't all the same even though it is the same school each location lacks something that takes away from having a good experience or makes you regret spending money there.

Dinning Halls Vs. Other Options

There are four dinning halls on campus and they are good but get old fast. There is a good variety and also good stand-bys that are there everyday (such as cereal and pizza) but the quality could be better. Personally I love to eat at the other places on campus, such as subway and chick-fil-a. Which is included in a meal plan. Over all you can't go hungry while on campus.

Not Horrible

They definitely could be worse. The new dining hall makes it a lot better - I'd suggest going there over any of the other dining halls. Everywhere else has the same stuff every day, with maybe one or two new dishes.
