    There is a huge variety of food in the dining halls. There is food from many different parts of the world and different cultures. There is a hamburger, pizza, and pasta bar. There is a variety of deserts served as well as there being an ice cream machine.

    There is a great range of restaurants. Plenty of low budget to fine dinning places. All the restaurants try to buy local as much as possible so the food is great.

    About as good as you can expect for college dining. They do offer vegetarian choices and try to mix it up with different ethnic cuisines every night.

    I've had it a few times its okay and kinda unhealthy, but were changing companies to a better one that serves healthy choices and is supposedly yummier so maybe it'll be better next year.

    There are many healthy options for food in downtown Ashland. Many restaurants use organic food products. Closer to campus you can find Mexican, Chinese and Japanese restaurants. Casa Del Pueblo, the Mexican Restaurant across the street from campus has good food at great prices.
