What Students Are Saying

The lunches are always different with so much to choose from. The meals are cheaper than eating at some fast food restaurants. The cafeteria always has something you'll enjoy!
Chelsea from Shellman, GA
Boar's Head is delicious and healthy! Chick fil a is great for fry cravings and fast service. Unfortunately, both are expensive. Busy students will run out of flex cash with half the semester left. I loathe the cafe. Fried chicken Thursday is okay. Burgers are good but rare, as are fries. The ice cream machine is amazing. Don't eat the pizza...but if you have to opt for cheese, not pepperoni.

The Starbucks is great and the POD store has good but expensive snacks. You can use flex cash at both.
Victoria from Fortson, GA
The food on campus is actually pretty amazing! They are working on adding a few more restaurants such as Chickfila and Boars Head Deli in the fall!
Gloria from Ellaville, GA
I've only eaten in the cafeteria once, but I really enjoyed my experience. I've heard from my friends that there are good days and bad days, as like it is in all cafeterias.
Lilly from Fitzgerald, GA
again, i wouldn't know because i don't eat my meals there, but i have heard it is super good! it sure does smell good though :) and if you are in a hurry, they have freshly made sandwiches you can pick up and run to class with! :)
