Our world-class chefs take great pride in developing creative menus, multicultural entrées and side dishes, and delectable desserts to keep our guests coming back for more.  From holiday-themed meals to chef surprises and dining room special nights, staff members work with our student dining committees throughout the year to provide rich dining experiences that you can share with your friends. 

And the best part? You're welcome to sample a variety of menu options at no extra cost.  Guests on a meal plan just swipe their card at the door; other guests may pay with Big Red Bucks, CornellCard, or credit card.

Note: The five West Campus House Dining Rooms hold House Dinners every Wednesday from 6-7pm, open only to members of each House. Our dining rooms reopen to others at 7pm following each week's House Dinner, and we welcome non-residents to join us after that time, or choose another dining room on campus for their Wednesday dinner. Check now.dining.cornell.edu for hours and menus at all of our eateries.
