Welcome to Hofstra University Dining Services

Quality, Consistency and Innovation at Every Turn

Culinary Community

At Hofstra University, we believe Dining Services plays an important role in fostering a sense of community and are honored to provide food services while you acquire a top notch education. Dining Services strives to create a home away from home experience by providing the highest level of quality and customer satisfaction.

Student Focused Dining

At Hofstra University we strive to exceed expectations by tailoring programs, services and dining venues to meet the needs of the students and the entire Hofstra community. Through customer satisfaction surveys, focus groups, comment boards and an open door policy, we encourage communication and feedback. This helps us better understand how to match our programs and services with the needs of the Hofstra University community. Our programs and services reflect the diversity and spirit of Hofstra University. Each location has its own identity with numerous food platforms and a large variety of items that can be enjoyed whenever your schedule allows. There is a meal plan to fit any lifestyle on campus with 24 hour dining services, 20 retail restaurant locations and a selection of meal plan options varying in points, tailored for any part-time and full-time student.

Hofstra USA re-opened to the campus community this fall with a new renovated, unique dining location featuring a Dave and Buster-style entertainment venue with an expanded menu derived from student-suggestions. Hofstra USA offers late night hours, which fosters a sense of community by encouraging students to enjoy a “night-out,” right on campus.  

Hofstra USA wasn’t the only dining location to receive a makeover. Dutch Treats, the 24/7 convenience store on campus was completely renovated and expanded. It now offers a larger selection of bottled beverages, hot Au Bon Pain soups and an increased variety of grab and go salads, sandwiches and snacks. Additionally, the entire store has been remodeled with a fresh, modern and welcoming décor.

The Student Center Café added Latin cuisine to its offerings this spring. SONO is the newest station in the café offering made-to-order steak, chicken and vegetable burritos and bowls.

Juice Event, the popular smoothie and fresh squeezed juice station, has added new smoothies to its offerings as well as delicious milkshakes and ice cream sundaes.
