Bruin Cafe

<p>Hi guys! I am getting sick of dining hall food and I want to try out the Bruin Cafe. I looked up the menu on the Dining Services webpage. Are the sandwiches any good? Also, how do I order it and how does the meal swipes work there?</p>

<p>Thank you. I am hungry.</p>

<p>One swipe will get you a soup, salad, or sandwich with a fountain drink and fruit or chips. One swipe can also get you a smoothie or ice-blended drink.</p>

<p>I really dislike the tuna sandwiches, and the ham and swiss one is okay. The clam chowder they have there is absolutely amazing though.</p>

<p>theres a swiper at the door where your order. then your number is called after your food is ready.</p>

<p>i recommend roasted turkey on whole grain. i dont like their normal breads they use...theyre much too thick, hard, and crumbly. chicken wonton and chicken casear salads are good too, as is the clam chowder bead bowl.</p>

<p>the place is pretty good, healthier too. get the southwestern chicken wap, salads are really good too. The're all pretty much delicious.</p>

<p>the what now? is that new? :(</p>

<p>is the "one swipe for two drinks" thing limited to the meal period? because i dont have premier and end up with like 7 meals left at the end of a week</p>

<p>i think bcaf is kind of a ripoff for ur swipe. then again, i eat alot and rendezvous gneerally does not fill me up.</p>

<p>doesnt matter what you are swiping for. non premier plans are always limited to one swipe per meal period.</p>

<p>hmm.... i think bcaf is reasonable considering a lot of the foods in the dining halls are unappetizing... maybe its just me! [ahem, rieber]</p>

<p>hey hey, being a denizen of rieber terrace, im slightly offended by that comment qipao. sure our food isnt always "appetizing" but its better than some other halls....</p>

<p>rieber has the worst food. grossss.</p>

<p>and the bruinsub with extra meat (hot) is always good!</p>

<p>I disagree. While Reiber has become unappetizing (because I go there so often), I'd still eat there over De Neve. The De Neve dining hall has served the grossest food out of all the places I have tried since I came here.</p>

<p>By the way, thanks everyone! I went to the Bruin Cafe and got myself a tasty sandwich. Now, I am full and happy. :D</p>

<p>in my opinion rieber is the worst, covel>de neve>rieber... maybe cause i live in sproul now that i noticed de neve isn't that bad (i was in de neve last year and got bored of it from going there so much) but rendezvous>all... puzzles is good if you just want a tasty meal and willing to work it off... bcafe is nice too... de neve late night is awesome too, better hours than crossroads...</p>

<p>how's the mypizza thing? i was walking around de neve last nite and saw a lot of people with pizza boxs and 6-packs of coke. is it worth it?</p>

<p>I don't think it's worth it if you use your swipes. It's 4 swipes for a pizza with three toppings and soda. Who would want to waste two days worth of meal swipes for that? If you pay wth money, I think it's $10 to $12 for the pizza and $3 for soda.</p>

<p>Has anyone tried their pizza? Is it good?</p>

<p>4 swipes isn't too bad, especially for people with 19p :) last year both my roommates and i had 19p, and 2 neighbors had 19p and we had so much left over swipes that we had 2 pizza's each night for the whole finals week... awesome breaks in between study times...</p>

<p>it's fine. it's better with toppings. my favorite topping combo was pepperoni, ham, and tomatoes.</p>

<p>whats the sauce they put on the sandwiches at bcafe? its like a purple jelly~~~kinda icky</p>

<p>cranberry sauce. just ask them to leave it off.</p>

<p>the pizzas are pretty damn good at about 3am during finals/midterms week</p>
