UC Cafes

UC Cafes strive to provide the campus community an exceptional and convenient dining experience on a daily basis focused on customer service. Our menus include a wide variety of drinks, soups, sandwiches, salads, and snacks designed to accommodate those with dietary and nutritional needs or preferences.

NEW for Fall ’20/Spring ’21: Flex Passes as Payment – UC Cafes (Beanery, Up & Atom, Bookworms, Chem, Wilburs) will accept Flex Passes. The meal equivalency of a Flex Pass is $7.00. When you are at that cafe, multiple, separate Flex Passes can be used. If you choose to only use one Flex Pass and your order is over $7.00 you will need to pay the balance with cash, credit/debit card, Husky Bucks or points. There is no limit on the number of times you use a Flex Pass during the day. Flex Passes are not accepted at the Market Cafe – located in the Student Union.

Sandwiches
UC Cafes’ "With the Grain" sandwiches are made fresh daily. Our dedicated staff produces nearly 1,200 sandwiches a day featuring fresh bread such as focaccia, marble rye, and white and wheat grinder rolls – all baked in our very own UConn bakery!

Salads
Over 250 salads are made fresh every day using fresh-cut greens and the finest ingredients!

Rainforest Alliance Certified Coffee
We offer bold and flavored roasts and are proud to serve Rainforest Alliance Certified coffee, including other fine coffees made right here in Connecticut!

Peet’s Coffee
Bookworms & The Beanery are proud to serve Peet’s coffee! Our Peet’s menu includes many new specialty drinks and various roasts of premium-quality coffee.

Community & Beyond
Our “Give to the Cause” café donation boxes has provided, through the generosity of our customers, donations to the following charities: Marine Toys for Tots Program, Camp Rising Sun (Colebrook, CT), Epilepsy Foundation of Connecticut, Muscular Dystrophy Association, Children’s Miracle Network, and the Red Cross Hurricane Relief Fund. The recent donation to the Red Cross was $2500.

The “Give to the Cause” café donation boxes are a collaboration of the Department of Dining Services and UConn’s Community Outreach program.
