Thankfully at SU, we have so many <a href=\"http:\/\/foodservices.syr.edu\/retail-dining\/cafes\/\">on-campus caf\u00e9 options<\/a>, so here is a breakdown of some of the caf\u00e9s I visited and spotlighted:<\/p>\n<p><strong>Slocum Caf\u00e9<\/strong><br \/>\nSlocum Caf\u00e9 has a great assortment of baked goods and is chalk full of on-the-go options. One of their best offerings is their gourmet sandwiches, which include a fajita chicken salad sandwich and a grilled Portobello sandwich for vegetarians. Beware, they stop serving hot breakfast food at 10:30 a.m., so keep that in mind if you plan on stopping by in the morning.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Falk Caf\u00e9 on 2<\/strong><br \/>\nAlthough being far away from the central Quad, Falk is the most recently renovated caf\u00e9, which reopened in 2017. They have touch-screen monitors that allow diners to order their food through the touchpad. The caf\u00e9 also offers a build-your-own salad bar, which is great for those craving healthy food options.<\/p>\n<p><strong>People\u2019s Place<\/strong><br \/>\nIn the basement of Hendricks Chapel lies the student-run caf\u00e9 called People\u2019s Place. While it is cash-only and the only caf\u00e9 on the list that does not accept SUpercard FOOD, it is still very affordable and a nice change from the other caf\u00e9s since it\u2019s been recently revamped and offers food from local Syracuse establishments.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Pages Caf\u00e9<\/strong><br \/>\nPages Caf\u00e9 does a great job of offering a wide assortment of coffee and tea options, as well as flavored expresso shots, courtesy of Freedom of Espresso. It\u2019s awesome for those late nights studying in Bird because it\u2019s open until 11 p.m. Sunday through Thursday and serves breakfast and lunch options all-day long.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Food.com<\/strong><br \/>\nSituated in the center of Newhouse, Food.com offers a well-rounded assortment of caf\u00e9 favorites including Queso\u2019s, offering burritos, bowls, and salads (unfortunately, guac is extra). Some unique offerings here are the Bran Grill Texas Sandwich and the Dean Rubin, great to curb your hunger after a long day of class because Food.com is open until 7 p.m. Monday through Thursday. The one downside to this caf\u00e9 is that it can be hard to find seating around lunch hours.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Eggers Caf\u00e9<\/strong><br \/>\nEggers Caf\u00e9 is hard to come by unless you know where to look, but it is a gem in terms of caf\u00e9s because it has an amazing view of the campus. For those who want to branch out of ham or turkey sandwiches, Eggers provides several unique options like corned beef and tuna melts. For the vegetarians out there, they also offer a veggie burger and wrap that is sure to hit the spot. They also have mac and cheese and a soup of the day, if you are in the mood for something warm.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Life Sciences Caf\u00e9<\/strong><br \/>\nLife Science Caf\u00e9 has robust breakfast and lunch offerings including an assortment of bagel flavors and plenty of wrap options. One of their best offerings are the fresh-blended smoothies that are made-to-order and include a selection of two fresh fruit add-ins. They also offer energy boosters that can be added to smoothies for those days you didn&#8217;t get much sleep.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Starbucks, West Campus<\/strong><br \/>\nIf you are in the mood for something a little familiar, try the Starbucks in West Campus. It accepts SUpercard FOOD and has all of your favorite drinks and treats. This location is also nice because it is a lot less busy than the one on Marshall Street, so you could actually get work done while enjoying your frappuccino.<\/p>\n<p><em>Honorable Mention:<\/em><br \/>\n<strong>Goldstein Alumni and Faculty Center<\/strong><br \/>\nWhile Faculty isn\u2019t a caf\u00e9 per se, it does offer great lunch options, with daily specials and a menu that is regularly updated. It is only open from 11:30 a.m. &#8211; 2:30 p.m. and the student seating isn\u2019t always available, so check their <a href=\"https:\/\/www.facebook.com\/Goldstein-Alumni-Faculty-Center-171324335082\/?ref=bookmarks\">Facebook page<\/a> before stopping by.<\/p>\n<p>Written by Nadia Suleman \u201919, S.I.
