Chapter 6: Terp Diet

By Allison Gray


Testudo's Tips!
  • Make sure you use all of your 251 North meals!
  • Try new foods, such as the buffalo chicken wrap.
  • Don’t forget the rotating “Chef’s Feature” at Emma’s (south campus dining hall), and Blue Plate (north campus dining hall).


CHAPTER SUMMARY:
Amidst navigating campus, making new friends, and ordering textbooks you’re bound to get hungry. Take it from several students who eat in College Park every day: there is food to stand in line for and food that’s not really worth the wait, both on and off campus.  This university has three dining halls on campus, 13 cafes and five convenient shops. Just off campus, there is a kosher dining facility called Maryland Hillel, which is a popular alternative to the campus-dining plan for Jewish students.

Route 1 has the most off campus restaurants within walking distance of the university. And there is even a food truck that can be found in various campus locations, run by Green Tidings, the university’s catering service.
