It’s one of the most important questions for any traveler: “Where should we eat?” In Athens, you’ll never go wrong. Whether you choose to eat on campus at one of our award-winning dining halls or venture into Athens to sample local cuisine, you won’t be disappointed.
The UGA Visitors Center
The UGA Visitors Center, just off the Georgia State Route 10 Loop in Athens, is the first place to stop when visiting the university. The Center hosts prospective undergraduate student information sessions and student-led tours across campus, combining the history and geography of UGA with personal stories from our Georgia family.

Dining Halls
UGA has five dining commons across campus that offer a variety of rotating menu items. All UGA dining halls are open to the public for a per person cash price and offer an all-you-can-eat buffet style.

The Georgia Center
Let the Georgia Center’s chefs treat you to fast-casual dining and Jittery Joe’s coffee at the Bulldog Bistro, or table service in the quiet atmosphere of the Savannah Room — all under one roof in the University of Georgia Center for Continuing Education & Hotel.

Campus Eateries
The Tate Center offers everything from Asian cuisine to burgers, pizza to coffee. If you have a sweet tooth, check out the UGA Creamery, a longtime campus favorite, in the Environmental Health Science Building on South Campus.
