Whether you’re a health food junkie or a dessert lover, the
dining halls at CSULB cater to the various needs of students that reside at the
dorms.
There are a total of three dining halls, located at Hillside
College, Parkside College, and at the off campus Beachside College. Students can eat at any dining hall,
regardless of which college they reside at.
The dining halls offer a buffet-style meal plan, with
unlimited access to a salad bar, deli counter, hot food selection, dessert bar,
and many other choices.

Students can choose beforehand the type of meal plan to
purchase when filling out forms for housing. Choices include a ten meal per
week plan, a 19 meal per week plan, and a block plan, which accounts for 210
meals per semester. With the block plan, a student may also be able to swipe in
for meals more than once within the designated dining hours.
“I don’t even know why I chose the block plan,” said Jessica
Escoto, a third year health care administration major. “But I’m glad I did. I
can swipe my friends in. I can go get dessert before my night class…and if I’m
stressed, I’ll go after too.”
The hours at each hall are only open for certain periods of
time in accordance to breakfast, lunch, and dinner. Brunch is also served on
the weekends.
To mix things up for curious taste buds, menus are
constructed on a four-week cycle, with complimentary additional food bars.
“I absolutely LOVE Taco Tuesdays,” said Nicole Troung, a
first year pre-nursing major. “I’m glad it’s not every Tuesday though, otherwise
I’d probably be sick of it by now.”
Can't seem to find time to eat? Students that are not able
to sit down and eat before class can still grab a quick bite by receiving a
container after swiping in and preparing a meal to go.
Students with dietary needs and food allergies are also able
to contact the head Chef Manager, Rachel Panghunasan about any accommodations
they might need.
Bon Appétit!
