    South Alabama has multiple places to eat on campus. Whether you go to the cafe and sometimes get a good meal, or you are running a little late and grab a bagel or a fresh made sandwich from Java city, Starbucks, or Einstein's Bagel.

    Really nice cafeteria, really crappy food. BUT, you should still live on campus at least your freshman year :)

    There are a lot of food options here. Eating at the caf is the typical thing to do and the food isn't that bad. They always have a great salad bar, pizza, and sub sandwiches. The other stations switch the food up. Other than that there is a chick-a-fila, Quiznos, Burger Studios, Pizza Hut, Delta Deli, Java City, and Starbucks to choose from as well as many off campus restaurants. I know the Waffle House on Old Shell road gives a 10% student discount.

    The food is okay during the day. But when it is late at night and you get hungry and want a snack, the only place on campus that is open is the Delta Deli. They don't never have their entire menu and everything is a little bit expensive.

    I am personally not involved, but I wanted to be. The Greek life at USA is a fun time. They have many events and you have an opportunity to meet many people.
