Boston University has lots of options for spending your dining dollars on campus, whether it’s the fast-foods you know and love or the (expensive) places in the George Sherman Union (GSU), it\u2019s easy to lose track by the end of the semester. I\u2019ve tried all of the Boston University food places so you don\u2019t have to, and here’s what’s worth your dining dollars, and what’s not.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

My Top Picks:<\/span><\/p>\n

Greens & Grains:<\/span><\/p>\n

An on campus dupe of Sweetgreen, that will be sure to give you the biggest salad you have ever seen in your life. Life changing in comparison to a dining hall salad. 10\/10.<\/span><\/p>\n

Saxby\u2019s:<\/span><\/p>\n

The experience at Saxby\u2019s is the same as riding a roller coaster, you might need to wait for two hours, but that’s worth it for 15 minutes of fun right? Honestly, they have a wait for a reason. The food and coffee is the best you\u2019ll get on campus, but CDS is always packed and it misses the calm coffee house feel Pavement and Einsteins have. 9\/10.<\/span><\/p>\n

Raising Canes: 9\/10<\/span><\/p>\n

I had never tried Raising Canes before coming to BU, but now I can confidently say I\u2019m hooked. I have made the trek through the green line closures, to West Campus just to have their chicken, and it is worth every penny you\u2019ve got. The only issue I\u2019ve ever had with Canes, is that GrubHub likes to lie to you, and say your order will be ready in 5-10 minutes, but on a busy night, it can take up to an hour. Don\u2019t trust Grubhub, I recommend ordering in person. 9\/10.<\/span><\/p>\n

Domino\u2019s:<\/span><\/p>\n

Though I have only ordered Domino\u2019s past 12am at night, it is the perfect midnight snack. They also have a great rewards system that gives free food every two-three orders. Nothing beats coming home from a late class to get some free Dominos dessert. 10\/10.<\/span><\/p>\n

Charles River Bread Company:<\/span><\/p>\n

Consider this blog post my love letter to CRBC. Best sandwich I\u2019ve ever had in my life. Short wait, only about 10 minutes, AND they have AMAZING cookies\/deserts that change seasonally. CRBC is like Panera\u2019s cooler, more niche sibling, that’s everything Panera wants to be. CRBC I love you, and I will gladly give you all my dining dollars. 10\/10.<\/span><\/p>\n

There are many other places that accept dining dollars around campus such as:<\/span><\/p>\n
