Our Grab & Go locations are a great option if you need something quick and don't have time to head to the dining hall for dinner or if hunger hits later in the evening. These spots are walk-up counters located outside of the dining hall servery. Students use their flex pass or points for a meal. Even if you've already had dinner in the dining hall, you can purchase a Grab & Go meal. Additional forms of payment, such as debit/credit and Husky Bucks, are also accepted.
Both locations open on the first day of classes each semester and will close when the dining hall closes due to weather, seasonal/holiday breaks, etc.
