Meal Plans and Dining Programs
Princeton University offers comprehensive meal plans which are available to all active undergraduate and graduate students living on campus or off. In addition, your meal plan includes a number of programs designed to offer flexibility to your dining experience. Explore your dining program options.
Sustainability and Wellness
While balancing the many demands of providing our core services (residential and retail dining, catering services, and concessions), Campus Dining considers the broader context of social and environmental issues surrounding food production, distribution, and preparation. This consideration has led to several ongoing initiatives that shift purchases towards foods produced with lower environmental impacts, reducing dining hall waste, and strengthening our ties with the local community.
Campus Dining’s earth-forward food philosophy supports serving up a variety of wholesome nourishing meals. Seasonality and sourcing locally is our focus. In doing so, we provide nutritious options throughout all of our six dining halls and retail cafes.
In addition, our campus registered dietitian nutritionist (RDN) is here to help you improve your overall health and well-being through proper planning and nutrition. Schedule a consultation today!

From office meetings and casual coffee breaks to luncheons and informal get-togethers, we offer a delicious and simply presented menu.
