    Each Palm Beach State campus has a cafeteria with both delicious and healthful options and a Dunkin Donuts (Lake Worth campus's DD makes the best drinks, but it is not because I work there mind you). Because I have the privilege of attending the very lovely Palm Beach Gardens campus and the commodious Lake Worth campus I can assure you that there are great off-campus dining options available within five minutes of the area including Sushi bars, Starbucks, Tijuana Flats, McDonald's and Subway. If you are in the Gardens area, there is a huge mall across the street from campus that offers a great food court.

    There is a Dunkin Donuts on the campus that has excellent drinks and foods. Their is a cafeteria on campus also. There are vending machines located all over so if you are in a hurry you can still grab a drink or snack.
