our culinary commitments
welcome to Elon! “Food brings people together – food brings people to the table. The connections we make over a meal are so important, and can last a lifetime. We strive to create that sense of community at Elon, on campus and around the table, while crafting an authentic dining experience that is for our students, by our students.” LAURA THOMPSON, RESIDENT DISTRICT MANAGER ELON DINING

culinary Our dining program is chef driven. Our chefs have mastered diverse flavors and techniques, and bring that expertise to campus every day. Our teams take care to not only use the best, responsibly sourced techniques in their dishes, but also to make sure that we carefully consider different tastes, diets, and allergy considerations to make sure that everyone has a seat at the table.
executive chef
jay vetter
Executive Chef Jay Vetter leads a talented team of culinarians across campus. He works together with trained, skilled chefs at each of our campus restaurants and residential dining halls to craft thoughtful, authentic dishes. Our chefs write their own menus each week based on seasonality of ingredients and, most importantly, constant feedback from our guests. This is a program for our students, by our students, so guest feedback is crucial in helping our chefs guide our menus and create dishes with integrity that we know our guests will enjoy. For more information on how we encourage guest feedback and put it to use, see our Napkin Talk wall on page 8 & 9.
health & wellness We take preferences seriously and work very hard to incorporate menu items throughout our dining halls to meet the various needs and wants of our students. To make it easier, we clearly and carefully label menu items that are vegan, vegetarian, or made without gluten. Look for these symbols on our menu boards and in our dietary preference filter online. For more information, reference our "Managing Food Allergies on Campus" booklet.

sustainability We care about our impact on our planet, so we take special care to support our local food systems, sourcing our ingredients locally and responsibly, and working with farmers and vendors right in our community. Our efforts don’t stop there, as our teams are constantly working on new ways to cut down on waste, make our facilities greener, and emphasize reusable and compostable materials in our restaurants.
sustainability coordinator
caroline redick
Our Sustainability Coordinator on campus, Caroline, leads these efforts in our dining program. She identifies and highlights new local partnerships, spearheads efforts on sustainable food sourcing, and coordinates all of our other sustainability initiatives on campus.
Caroline is constantly out on campus, educating our students on how to best limit food waste, how we can support local and responsible farmers, and eat in a way that helps make our whole world healthier. You’ll also see her leading sustainability events and local tastings that introduce new, responsibly sourced food to our campus. [email protected]
events & collaborations In addition to our Sustainability & Health & Wellness events we love organizing special events on campus. Whether it's a themed meal, a surprise pop-up to brighten your day, or a "Cram Cart" full of study snacks, we'll have you covered! Our teams also love to collaborate with student groups, campus organizations, and university initiatives. Our chefs have even been known to get involved in academia, offering experiential learning as part of Elon University courses covering food identity and ethics.

your feedback matters Guest feedback and input is the most important tool that we use to craft our dining program. Our chefs use it to write menus, we consult it when we plan events, and we rely on it when we are introducing something new to campus. Our Napkin Talk walls, which reside in each dining hall on campus, give our guests an outlet to give real-time feedback to our teams, and in turn we respond daily to comments on our wall and make meaningful additions and adjustments to our menus and offerings every day.
We're proud to announce that this year we'll be partnering with Good Uncle – a new food delivery app that delivers quality food fast, on and off-campus. They combine the use of innovative technology and culinary genius to deliver fresh, nutritious meals around your busy schedule. You can use your Phoenix Cash and Food Dollars in the Good Uncle app available in the App Store and Google Play. Get $8 off your first meal with the invite code, "HTCEAT"!

using your meal plan Meal Swipes Meal Swipes can be used in our residential dining halls. Once you swipe in, you can enjoy an all-you-care-to-eat meal. All Access Plans come with unlimited Meal Swipes, while Block Plans come with a set amount of swipes that roll over between semesters, but drop at the end of each year.
Meal Exchanges A Meal Exchange is a set retail combo that can be used at any of our on-campus retail locations. You can typically get an entrée, side, and drink. All Elon Dining retail locations offer Meal Exchange, so variety abounds! Unused Meal Exchanges expire at the end of each week. Typical Meal Exchanges Qdoba Mexican Eats - three chicken tacos with a 22 oz. fountain drink Winter Garden Café - Freshii thai lemongrass burrito with a 22 oz. fountain drink Acorn Coffee Shop - made-to-order deli sandwich with chips and a 12 oz. coffee Einstein Bros. Bagels - pizza bagel with a piece of whole fruit and a 22 oz. water
Meal Dollars Meal Dollars come with your meal plan and can be used at any Elon Dining facility on the same principle as a debit card. Meal Dollars carry over from Fall to Winter and Winter to Spring (must purchase same or higher priced meal plan in Spring for Meal Dollars to transfer). Roll over Meal Dollars will appear on student accounts after the Add/Drop period ends. If you run low on Meal Dollars, reload with Food Dollars.
Food Dollars Food Dollars are a pre-paid declining balance account used exclusively in dining locations on campus. Food Dollars differ from Meal Dollars in that they are added in addition to your meal plan, and they stay on your card as long as you are enrolled at Elon. You also receive a 15% discount when you use Food Dollars at any dining location. You can add Food Dollars at any time. Simply stop by or contact the Phoenix Card office in McCoy Commons 201 or visit their website to add!
Guest Meals You can use Guest Meals to treat visiting friends and family to a free meal at any of our dining halls or on-campus retail locations.
