We hope that everyone’s semester is off to a great start. Check out what GW Dining is ‘cooking up’ in September!

Pure Eats Now Serving Breakfast

Pure Eats now offers breakfast in all dining halls! The breakfast menu features sausage that is made in-house along with other tasty options. Pure Eats is our allergen-friendly station where the top nine allergens are not served, giving all students a safe and inclusive dining option to start their day. Check it out, no matter your dietary needs.

Vietnamese-style Cuisine Featured at GW Zingers

You spoke, and we listened. Based on your feedback, our chefs spent the summer elevating our menus to bring new and fresh options to campus. Swing by GW Zingers at GW Hillel to experience our new fully kosher Vietnamese-inspired dishes with bold and delicious flavors.

As a reminder, this Monday, Sept. 1 is the deadline for residential students to request a change to their fall meal plan. Please fill out this form to submit a change request.

What is a Swipe? A swipe can be used to gain entry into any of our three all-you-care-to-eat dining halls or to purchase a Meal Deal at one of our quick-service retail locations. Important Tip: Swipes do not carry over between semesters.

What are Flex Meals? Flex Meals allow students on the All Access, Vern All Access, or Revolutionary 85 Meal Plans to use one swipe per week at locations that typically only accept Dining Dollars.

Each week (Sunday–Saturday), students enrolled in one of these meal plans can use one swipe at:

The one Flex Meal allotment per location resets every Sunday at midnight during the semester. Unused Flex Meals do not roll over to future weeks.

Special Note for Revolutionary 85 Meal Plan Holders: Using a swipe for a Flex Meal begins (or continues) one of your All Access Days.

What are Dining Dollars? Dining Dollars are declining balance funds included with your GW Dining Meal Plan and stored on your GWorld Student ID. They work as a dollar-for-dollar equivalent (purchasing a $5 item will deduct $5 Dining Dollars) and can be used at GW Dining’s on-campus locations or with any of our off-campus dining partners.

Exclusive GW Grubhub Deal
Anyone with a GWorld ID can get 50% off your first Grubhub order with the code ‘WELCOME50’ and enjoy $0 delivery fees from local restaurants once you affiliate with GW in the app. You won’t want to miss out on this tasty deal!

Sip on Something New
Cool off with our current limited-time-offer drink - the refreshing Mango Lassi at Chaat House. Smooth, sweet, and perfectly spiced, it is a must-try while supplies last.

Chef Pop-Ups Are Back
Get ready for flavor on the move. Starting Wednesday, Sept. 3, our Chef Pop-Ups will rotate each week to a different dining hall. Each pop-up brings fresh creations and unique dishes straight from our chefs to you. We encourage you to try something new and delicious every week.
