What Students Are Saying

Cafeteria food is never the best meal in the world. That does not really change no matter where you go. The cafeteria staff is kind, though. In our student union, we have Chik-Fil-A, Burger Studio, a coffee place, and a smoothie place. That is not many choices, but they are all good. I enjoy my dining selection here at Delta State.
Magnolia from Hernando, MS
The cafeteria offers a variety of food everyday and even offers healthier options due to our size of athletic enrollment. The Union also offers a good variety of foods including a Burger Studio, coffee shop, smoothie shop and Chick-fil-a.
Holly from Bentonia, MS
Delta State has a Dinning Hall that has that offers a wide range of food every single night. The menu constantly changes so you won't get bored, but even if you do Delta State also has a food court located in the student Union on campus complete with a Chick-fil-lay, Burger Studio, Java City ,and Freshands
