Top 20 Universities: a ranking of their food

College Search & Selection
1

<p>The Daily Meal just ranked the top 20 universities (in USNWR) according to their dining options. Since that is obviously a limited sample of colleges, these colleges can only be compared against one another; #1 on this list may well not be #1 in the country. </p>

<p>The blurbs of information about the dining options at each of these in the slideshow are interesting. </p>

<h1>1 WUStL</h1>

<h1>2 MIT</h1>

<h1>3 Northwestern</h1>

<h1>4 Cornell</h1>

<h1>5 Penn</h1>

<h1>6 Vanderbilt</h1>

<h1>7 Princeton</h1>

<h1>8 Duke</h1>

<h1>9 Stanford</h1>

<h1>10 Dartmouth</h1>

<h1>11 Harvard</h1>

<h1>12 Yale</h1>

<h1>13 Columbia</h1>

<h1>14 Caltech</h1>

<h1>15 Emory</h1>

<h1>16 Chicago</h1>

<h1>17 Johns Hopkins</h1>

<h1>18 Brown</h1>

<h1>19 Notre Dame</h1>

<h1>20 Rice</h1>

<p>Food rankings are so silly unless there is a student that has eaten at all 20 schools on the list.</p>

<p>All I know is that WashU #1. That school has amazing amenities and food.</p>

<p>I heard the food at Penn sucks from multiple sources. I wonder how accurate this is…</p>

<p>No props to lsu’s food</p>

<p>The food service at Penn is now provided by the same company–Bon Appetit–that provides the food service at #1 ranked WUSTL:</p>

<p>[Clients</a> - Bon Apptit Management Company](<a href=“http://www.bamco.com/about-us/clients]Clients”>http://www.bamco.com/about-us/clients)</p>

<p>Sometimes, I think that Penn students are more critical of the university’s food service because of the amazing variety of tasty alternatives available in the immediate area from the [59</a> food trucks](<a href=“http://www.pennfoodtrucks.com/]59”>http://www.pennfoodtrucks.com/), and from the great selection of [University</a> City restaurants](<a href=“http://universitycity.org/restaurants]University”>http://universitycity.org/restaurants).</p>

<p>45 Percenter I apologize for my Penn slander ;). I was told the food was bad last year, perhaps things have changed.</p>

<p>ND’s food is very good. Wow, now I want to eat at the other 18 above.</p>

8

<p>I’ve heard Cornell is very good.</p>

<p>I visited Wash U and the food was AWESOME. Totally agree about it having excellent food & amenities.</p>

<p>Duke also uses Bon Apptit Management Company, but I feel like the Bon Apptit managers are probably incompetant compared to the WashU ones.</p>
