Customer Reviews

★★★★☆ 4.0 denialguoh · May 2025

I hear a lot of complaints about the dining hall from students, but it honestly isn’t that bad. Granted, some of the food is genuinely pretty questionable like their chicken, but they have an ice cream bar which forgives most of their sins.

★★★★☆ 4.0 R Kearns · Nov 2023

I really like their salad bar and that there are lots of veggie/protein/grain options, soups, and desserts. It can get very loud when it is crowded, but when the crowd dies down it is a good place to get a variety of good food and drink. The food servers could be a little friendlier, but the entry ladies and other workers work hard and are really nice. I wish they didn't have as many salad dressings with soybean oil.

★★★★★ 5.0 Greig Roselli · Jul 2019

It’s convenient eating for those living in the Charles Drew House (across the way on College Street). Lots of food option - and, since it’s buffet style one can easily stock up and eat ALOT. Hit the salad bar first, and then go for your protein.

★★★★★ 5.0 The Crow's Nest · Jun 2019

I had 3 meals a day for 8 days here. Constantly changing the main meals. Vegan choices, Meats, fresh salad bar, raw veggies, lots of different drinks, dessert and tons of sides and sauces.

★★★☆☆ 3.0 Lauren Thompson · Mar 2017

Amherst College's only dining hall on campus. It has a lot of healthy options for food, but for the most part, many of the meals are underwhelming. The dining hall is open to the public for a flat price (which I would say is a bit much for the quality of the good) but once you are in the dining hall, you can eat as much as you want, so it's worth it in that sense.
