A Message to our Guests
Dining venues are expected to operate normally throughout the semester. Dining may alter hours or switch to grab and go for brief periods if the COVID-19 positive cases among students or staff have a significant impact on normal operational levels.
We anticipate again encountering continued challenges of supply chain and vendor labor shortages this semester, which may affect our daily offerings. Students will be advised of any changes through Lafayette Today and on the webpage.

Well-Being Indicator®
The Well-Being Indicator® represents more than just numbers. It’s an at-a-glance guide to help you navigate your food choices by comparing the nutritional value of one dish to another. The more full the arrow, the more healthful the dish is for you.
Because we care about your health, we offer a holistic nutrition program that makes it easy to find the healthful options in the café.

Meal Plans
Dining is integral to the residential college experience and plays an important role in helping students make connections, form communities, and learn from their food and consumption. Lafayette Dining Services works to provide students with a variety of appealing, convenient, and healthy dining options for all palates, dietary restrictions, and allergy sensitivities. Lafayette Dining Services supports small, local farms with food cooked from scratch. That means no processed or canned foods, homemade dressing and sauces, including soups and stocks. Accomplishing this is a mouthful indeed, but the bottom line is that staff strive to cook delicious food that’s good for students, the animals, the workers, the community, and the Earth — because they’re all connected
