    The food and dining at University of Charleston is always mouth-watering and satisfying. Each day the cafeteria cooks three meals a day, with plenty of options to choose from. They provide many choices from pizza to a warm hearty full course meal. The cafeteria is accessible between classes or during a break, and always a good place to hang out. The amazing aromas will lead your nose to the cafeteria.
