Dining Tips for Marywood Students
When it comes to fueling up for your busy days at Marywood University, having access to great food options is essential. Whether you're grabbing a quick bite between classes or sitting down with friends for a meal, Marywood’s dining facilities have you covered. Here are some handy tips to make the most of your dining experience on campus.
- Take Advantage of Dining Hall Variety The Main Dining Hall, located in the Nazareth Student Center, is the go-to spot for a wide variety of meal options. From fresh salads to global cuisine, you’ll find something for every taste. Try mixing up your routine by exploring different stations. Whether you’re in the mood for comfort food or something healthier, variety is key to keeping meals exciting.
- Plan Ahead with Meal Plans Your meal plan is one of the best tools for managing both your budget and your nutrition. If you have a specific meal plan, make sure you know how many meals per week you can enjoy and budget them accordingly. Marywood’s flexible plans make it easy to choose what works best for you, whether you’re an on-the-go eater or someone who enjoys sitting down for full meals.
- Don’t Miss Out on Special Events Throughout the semester, Marywood Dining Services hosts special events like themed dinners or holiday meals. These events are not only fun but often offer unique dishes that you don’t see every day. Be sure to keep an eye on the dining schedule or follow Marywood Dining Services on social media for updates on what’s happening in the dining hall.
- Grab a Quick Bite at the Learning Commons If you’re crunched for time, the Learning Commons is a perfect spot to grab a quick snack or coffee before heading to class. With a variety of grab-and-go options, including sandwiches, pastries, and smoothies, it’s an ideal place for those in need of something fast but still delicious.
- Take Advantage of Dietary Options Marywood Dining Services is committed to accommodating students with various dietary needs, including vegetarian, vegan, gluten-free, and more. Don’t hesitate to ask the staff if you have any questions about ingredients or special dietary requests—they’re more than happy to help you navigate your options.
- Get Creative with Your Meals The dining hall offers a lot of great ingredients, so why not get a little creative? Build your own custom meals by combining different foods from various stations. For example, you could grab a piece of grilled chicken from the entrée section and top it with salad bar ingredients for a protein-packed salad. Or mix up your breakfast with a yogurt parfait, granola, and fresh fruit.
- Stay Sustainable Marywood Dining Services is focused on sustainability, so do your part by reducing food waste and using reusable utensils and cups when possible. Taking only what you can eat and refilling a reusable water bottle is a simple way to help the environment while enjoying your meals.
- Use Your Pacers Points Don’t forget to use your Pacers Points for dining. This campus currency can be used at various dining locations, and it’s a convenient way to grab a meal without needing cash. Be sure to check your balance regularly so you don’t run out when you need it most.
- Mix It Up with Off-Campus Dining Although on-campus dining is convenient, Scranton has some great off-campus dining options to explore on the weekends. Whether you’re craving pizza, sushi, or brunch with friends, venturing off-campus every now and then can be a fun way to discover new spots and change up your routine.
Making the most of your dining options at Marywood University is easy with a little planning and creativity. Whether you’re fueling up before a study session or grabbing coffee with friends, dining on campus offers something for everyone.
