3 Best Places to Eat on Campus

This article is written by a student writer from the Her Campus at Utah chapter.

Are you hungry and tired of eating the same, boring campus food everyday?  We at HC Utah have you covered!  Try these 3 places to eat on campus and enjoy the change!

     1. Tony Caputo’s Market & Deli

Tony Caputo’s Market & Deli is an Italian cuisine deli located on the first floor inside the Carolyn Tanner Irish Humanities Building.  This little branch of Tony Caputo’s is truly an ideal place to have sandwiches and soups.  It is quite a small deli but has plenty of seating, including indoor and outdoor tables.

Tony Caputo’s on campus provides a great selection just like the other locations in Salt Lake City, as in sandwiches, soups and salads.  They also offer the daily sandwich specials which totally meets anyone’s appetite.  In addition, Tony Caputo’s daily pasta specials make it the perfect lunch spot for anyone.

Their price is average, not cheap but not expensive.  It varies from $3.99 to $7.99 per meal, depending on your food choice.  The portions are not very big, yet they are more than adequate for a filling lunch.

Tony Caputo’s provides an outstanding service, in which its employees are friendly and very quick about getting you your food.

     2. Crimson View

Located on the fourth floor of the Union Building of the University of Utah, Crimson View is a perfect place for students to come, enjoy their meals and hang out. 

Crimson View provides not only a variety of delicious food but also a breathtaking, 180-degree view of the Salt Lake valley.  The menu features traditional American cuisines in addition with some ethnic favorites.  Students who own meal plans or dining dollars may also dine here as well using transfer meals or flex dollars.

Crimson View also has a private room which is a great place to host parties and retreats.

     3. Good Stuff For U

Good Stuff For U is a small dining place located in the C. Roland Christensen Center Business Building.  It provides a variety of food from salads, soups, and sandwiches, to pizzas and pastas.  There are plenty of tables and chairs inside & outside of the building to eat at.

The quality of the food is remarkable, and all freshly-made.  The employees are pleasant, providing a warm and welcoming environment for the guests.
