    The food at the University of Bridgeport is lovely. The food is my favorite part about the school. There are many food choices, including a vegetarian and a gluten free zone. The dining hall is beautiful and the staff are kind.

    They just renovated the Cafetiere. Food is great, but gets tiring to eat. UB students get 50% off Papa John's Pizza when ordering. Many diners and restaurants around the area to dine-in and eat.

    The food depends on what kind of appetite you have, I personally never go to the cafeteria I rather cook my own food in my dorm.

    It's cool because you can eat snacks and Starbucks-esque food at the Scribe in the library for a very good price. The Marina dining hall has different vendors, like a BBQ hut, Thai food, Italian. In marina you get your food first then pay for what you get at the checkout. The HUB is set up like a high school cafeteria but with as many options as you wish. If you eat a lot I would consider getting a meal plan (they have one for commuters too) because you have to pay BEFORE you go into the hub, and then you can get whatever you would like, similar to a buffet. It does get pricey though, with lunch ranging to about $10.75 and dinner $11.75

    AWSOME! I have many friends in sororities and fraternities and the experience seems to be amazing. They are more than a family and always look after each other.
