What Students Are Saying

Compared to other campuses that I have visited, the food at Towson University is very impressive. My personal favorite places to eat are the sushi bar located in the University Union and Jamba Juice, which serves an array of healthy fruit and vegetables smoothies, in the West Village Commons. Also, if you feel like eating off campus, there is a Chipotle in walking distance that allows you to use your meal plan.

It's college not a home cooked meal every night. The food isn't bad and places like Newell Dining Hall/ The Den, West Village Commons, Au Bon Pain, and the union ( sus, p-tux and paws) are your best choices to survive.
Melisa from Wilmington, DE
The best food you will find is at West Village Commons. The dining hall is packed with a variety of dishes that are exquisit. There is also a mini market on the first floor named Outtakes as well as Panda Express. Other dining halls such as Glenn and Newell are also great. There is Au BonPain on the Hawkins building, i have never eaten there but everyone seems to enjoy it
