On the refrigerator/snack side they are adding new things likes pre-made sandwiches. Rather cheap and convenient location for studying in the library.

I live off campus I couldn't use my cat card because I don't have a meal plan. I didn't have cash on me either because I never do and I was left standing at the counter after they had already made my food, with no way to pay. I've worked in the food industry before and I have never been treated so badly. The guy checking me out was an a about the whole situation. They could've easily gotten my credit card information and charged me for the food once the system had started working again. Instead, they threw away the food and made me feel super bad.

It was my first time visiting, so I didn't realize they didn't provide liquid sweeteners and that you'd have to use packets instead. I ordered a medium Watermelon Cucumber Mint Refresher, which didn't have quite enough sweetness for my taste, so I ended up adding a few packets of sugar. The drink had a nice flavor overall, and the staff were exceptionally friendly. I would definitely return; it's worth the trip!

On the other hand, Java never disappoints. The only issue I've encountered is that when I request less ice, they sometimes don't fill the cup as much. I always order a large iced white mocha with very little ice, and it's my go-to drink every time.
