What Students Are Saying

The University of Maine has the most dining options out of any of the colleges I looked at. There are three all you can eat dining halls on campus, and there are multiple markets, coffee shops, ect. We even have a restaurant on campus called the Bears Den. The food is really good and you have plenty of food options no matter where you go to eat on campus. The dining program here is also very suitable to any food allergy, vegetarian/vegan diets that any person may require.
Stephanie
The food at Umaine dining halls are decent. It depends on your taste as well as the day of the week (certain days have different items), but there are marketplaces located on campus for those of you who just want a bowl of ramen or a hot pocket. Also, there are many pizza places located just off campus and they all deliver right to your dorm.
Nicholas from Gray, ME
You have to pick and choose what's healthy and what's not, but there's always something good to eat. I especially love Hilltops stir-fry.
Hayley from New York
The menu got kind of repetitive, but it was good food.
Kelsey from Orono, ME
Great options for food and dinning even have several convenient stores on campus as well.
Seth from Old Town, ME
Buff Chick Wednesdays at York is a must.
Caitlyn from Wilmington, DE
They food is good but after a while you get tired of the same things. Although wednesdays are Buff chicken at York dining hall and that never gets tiring. the local food however gets a 5 star rating, although it isn't cheap OHOP is the best pizza ever.
