All about the Eats
Everybody likes options, and Wake Forest Dining believes their commitment to choice goes beyond offering a second entree. It includes locations (multiple buildings), providers (outside brand names), hours (24/7), and specific dietary needs guided by principles of healthy eating and cultural awareness.
Wake Forest Dining operates 15 venues in eight buildings on campus, providing something for every palate and every whim.
Thousands of Wake Foresters eat here daily and by choice. And because of choice, for that matter. All-you-care-to-eat dining for breakfast, lunch, and dinner includes home-style favorites, rotisserie items, sandwiches, a salad and pasta bar, international meals, homemade desserts, and more.
