    I haven't eaten the food at Polk State, so I can't really say how it is except for rating it based on what other people have told me. It does smell really good and other people seem to enjoy it.

    Cafeteria has many options available for food and drinks, and many vending machines are located throughout campus. Many different forms of payment are accepted, including card readers on the vending machines. Easy access and many options for food and drinks equals an A+ from me!

    Personally, I liked the food here. It is not anything gourmet, but they do have some delicious food, depends on what you like to eat.

    They serve mostly processed stuff but I'll give them that they serve wheat sandwiches and salads.
