What Students Are Saying

We have the grille where students can choose where and what to eat aside from the main dining hall which always serves fresh food.
Ashley from Virginia Beach, VA
The food on campus is diverse. There is something for everybody. You can also eat of campus.
Jeremiah from Montross, VA
Virginia Wesleyan has the best food of any college I have been to. There is a cafeteria and three types of grills that serve food as well. Everything is quick, convenient, and delicious.
