What Students Are Saying

The food here at New Paltz is actually pretty great compared to other campuses. Besides the Hasbrouck Dining Hall, which is the main dining hall where students eat, there are other places on campus that serve delicious food. The Student Union Building (SUB) serves a lot of great food; it varies from fresh pizza, to sub sandwiches, sushi, indian food, starbucks, and so on. It is a great place eat and relax with friends. SUNY New Paltz also has a fantastic sandwich place called Ridgeview. You go and order your deli sandwich and it taste so good, you'll go back more than once trust me. The food is just not limited to on campus dining. The town is literally less than five minutes walking. In town there are a numerous amount of restaurants that serve extremely delicious food. You could choose from wings, chinese food, thai food, japanese food, indian food and the list goes on. If you are into fast food there is Burger King and McDonalds close by. There's also a 24 hour diner which serves the best food I've ever tasted. The food here at SUNY New Paltz and the town of New Paltz is very diverse and delicious.

Institutional cafeterias have a wide variety of offerings all the time. Outside in the town there are enough specialty food establishments to keep anyone happy.
