Dining Services

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

The Usdan Student Center contains two food courts with popular stations, as well as late-night dining options at the Café, the Boulevard and Quiznos.  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.

WhoCash

Dine, shop and do your laundry on campus without carrying cash. WhoCash, the university's debit plan, allows students to deposit money on their ID cards.  It is accepted in all dining halls on campus and also can be used to do laundry and make copies at the library.
