It has been an exciting summer for UMBC Dining Services as we upgrade and install several new dining venues across campus. Thank you to all the UMBC students, faculty, and staff who have endured the noise and dust this summer as we made these changes. Here is what’s coming:
International Station @ The Commons: This station replaces Au Bon Pain and adds in the new Halal Shack and a new Student Choice station, while keeping Masala. In response to student feedback, both Masala and Halal Shack will offer only Halal-certified foods in a great new open environment.
Dunkin’ Donuts @ The Commons: This new full service venue is located on the ground level, where you will find a variety of coffee beverages, breakfast and bakery sandwiches, bagels and, of course, donuts.
Chick-fil-A: This location has undergone extensive renovation in order to transition to a full-service venue with an expanded menu – most notably by adding milkshakes! The projected opening is mid-October. Until then, expanded hours will be available at the Administration Coffee Shop (open until 4 p.m.) and Pollo (open earlier at 10 a.m.), with pop-up stations added around campus along with periodic food trucks. Patrons are encouraged to also visit the new Dunkin' Donuts and Halal Shack venues.
Teaching Kitchen @ True Grit’s: This new venue will serve meals during breakfast, lunch, and dinner similar to the former My Pantry. In between meal periods and in the evenings, this station will be a teaching space for activities such as student recipe competitions, cooking classes, dining etiquette, and the like. Special events for seb, SGA, cultural groups, faculty and staff, athletics, and other groups on campus may also be held here. And don’t worry… Corey will still be there in the mornings to greet the early risers!
New Furnishings @ True Grit’s: Check out the new and refreshed furnishings and images of campus life.
We are excited to offer these dining services enhancements for the new academic year!
