At Union, dining means more than simply three meals a day. From diverse menus to comfortable venues, our dining program serves up fresh, delicious, quality food for the entire campus community.
You’ll enjoy a whole range of services and experiences, from theme dinners showcasing international cultures and cuisines to our sustainable options, the 03 Marketplace and student-run Ozone Café. There are eight separate facilities, including two main resident dining halls, to comfortably hang out and take a break from busy routines.
In addition to organic and international fare, you’ll find vegetarian and kosher selections; salad, pasta and sandwich bars; and good old-fashioned pub fare in our half-century-old, subterranean Rathskeller. Our dining staff is always open to suggestions and improving its offerings, as evidenced by our new sushi bar, a popular option in Reamer Campus Center.
Students keep a declining balance or debit account that can be used in all Union dining locations and for vending services. Money can be added at any time. A declining balance service allows students and their parents to view balance and transaction history and make deposits from the convenience of their computer or mobile device. Parents also may purchase special packages for birthdays (we have many talented bakers on staff) and campus exam periods.
Wherever you share a meal at Union, you’re sure to meet classmates and professors, enjoy great conversation and forge friendships that can last a lifetime.
Off-Campus Dining
At times you'll need a break from eating on campus, so Union offers its Dutchmen Dollars program, which is built right into your Union ID card, enabling you to enjoy some of the area's fun restaurants, delis and casual dining establishments.
