Dining at BU
BU offers one of the best campus dining services in the country. And our menus are as international as our community.
Barbecued ribs and freshly made burritos. Fettuccine Alfredo and chicken tikka masala. Stone-baked pizza. European pastries. Vegetarian/vegan, gluten-free and kosher options too. There are also healthy Sargent Choice meals. And if that isn’t enough, we have special culinary events like the Visiting Chef Series and Lobster Night.

Dining Plans
You can choose from five different dining plans to match your schedule and personal preferences. Each plan offers a specific number of meals per week or semester in residence dining halls. It also includes dining points you can use to buy food at other campus locations and for pizza delivery. Students living in dormitory-style residences are required to choose one of the plans.
