Dining Services

Meal plans at Brandeis give you ample choices, from meat and potatoes to vegeterian, from Tex-Mex to kosher. You can even eat your dessert first!

Usdan Café and the Boulevard in Usdan Student Center offer cook-to-order "grab-and-go" stations and late-night pizza. Choose from American basics like roast beef and chicken, a loaded salad bar, a quesadilla and burrito stand, ice-cream treats, and much more.

Really hungry? Go to Sherman Dining Hall's all-you-can-eat facility in Hassenfeld Conference Center, where you can choose from glatt kosher and nonkosher meals.

The recently renovated Stein, located above the Sherman Dining Hall, is a cozy pub serving lunch and dinner entrées, as well as sandwiches, soups, salads and homemade desserts.

Adjacent to campus, try Cappy's Pizza, Prime Deli or South Street Market. If you're looking to go a little more up-scale, check out these locales.
