What Students Are Saying

ODU has a lot of variety when it comes to dining on campus. It has three main dining places located in the center and both sides of campus. It also has a number of convenience stores and restaurants located near campus.
Tarique from Fredericksburg, VA
Cafe 1201 is my favor due to the size so their is more options. Honestly speaking, I wish the menu could be switched up a little better and offer more varieties.
Sasha from Richmond, VI
The staff in our dining halls are fantastic. They see hundreds of students every day and they still manage to smile and ask how your day is going all while serving up some tasty food.
