how bad is the food at hopkins?

<p>hey ppl...</p>

<p>i know on Princeton Review...Hopkins is right up there for worst food (at least it was last year not so sure about this years ratings)...but how far is this true? im a vegetarian so...</p>

<p>also in case the food is bad...r there like reasonably priced cafes/restaurants walking distance from campus? ne current students' comments will be really helpful</p>

<p>We ate in a JHU dorm last week and the food really was :eek:
I actually tossed mine. It was non-veg., overcooked, dry. There was a veg. calzone which was good, pizza, lots of pastas and salads.</p>

<p>my friend was a vegetarian, and she was actually exempt from her food plan at her school (cuz she is pretty strict) maybe you could ask JHU if you can be exempted, and then you can do w/e you want!</p>

<p>but can you really surive the whole year eating outside food i.e cafes etc alone? I mean conisder the fat......:)</p>

<p>The food is pretty bad, but it's like that at all universities - my sister's is ranked near the top, but she hates it. </p>

<p>The key is to take advantage of the variety of foods available to you, and also to use your points wisely. </p>

<p>Bring a couple palates of drinks (water, soda, V8 or juice) and some snacks with you, if you're driving.</p>

<p>As a current JHU student, the food sucks. No ifs, ands, or buts. However, there is a lot of good food located in Charles Village (the area surrounding JHU) and a lot of good places that deliver. Also, the food in Levering Hall is pretty good and, now that I think of it, it's covered for lunch on the meal plan. In all, don't worry about the food since local restaurants are cheap and you can be pretty flexible with the meal plan. Wolman and terrace are pretty bad, but you have options</p>

<p>From my experience at campus day, the food was far from good. I ate at the Terrace Food Court and I was afraid to go for the special of the day. I stuck with a cheeseburger and fries, which were pretty bad. I'm sure there are lots of places around Baltimore if you are willing to spend the $. But the food at most colleges are pretty bad. I was at U of Michigan campus day yesterday and their food wasn't much better.</p>

<p>I had a salad and custom made sandwich.</p>
