Arkansas Tech University Cafeteria

If you go, ask a student or someone who goes regularly what's good to eat. The food quality fluctuates so often and from dish to dish that it's best to just ask what's good to eat if you're not sure. Don't usually trust the vegetables... But there are specific exceptions. Meat you usually trust, but there are exceptions. Etc etc. It's good, but only if you know what not to touch or eat. Dietary restrictions: You'll have to ask about dietary restrictions every time you go. Sometimes they have options, sometimes they don't. It's never reliable. If you're celiac, never trust the gluten free area unless You've CONFIRMED with a staff that it's gluten free, and also the food is individually plated- don't trust the self serve. Cross contamination from self serve is common. But in general... If you have dietary restrictions, it's probably best to live off campus and cook for yourself. Parking: Parking is awful right now as everything is under construction for the new student union. In a few years it may be better, but as of 2024 good luck parking- especially if you're not a student with a yellow parking pass or staff with red and the ability to parallel park. Wheelchair accessibility: The handicap doors (electronic open) break often and don't get fixed for months. Go with someone who can hold the door open for you. There's no reliability that the doors work.

Their food is amazing. Just the right temperature and taste. The desserts are exquisite.

Used to be better. Quality fluctuates. Some days are really good and some are kind of OK. Price for non students is 9 bucks for all you can eat and drink.

The administration staff is really nice and knowledgeable and helpful if you go in there with respect and aim to work together to solve your FAFSA/financial aid issues(or whatever else you may have, transcripts,medical,etc). Food and coffee is pretty good, though cheaper off-campus. Most professors are quite nice and likeable but they are all helpful in that they have in-person or online office hours!I hope with Covid that ATU will continue to have in-person office hours, because that is probably where I learned the most.Highly recommend this college if your major is offerred here!
