New Dining Hours and Company - A Big Hit!!

Our new partner Chartwells with our new Director of Dining Services, Tim Grills, have redefined what it means to dine at Mitchell College.  The mission of Chartwells is to create spaces where "hungry minds gather" and focus on creating memorable dining experiences. Dining Services aims to use only fresh, whole, real ingredients, creating an even closer connection from the farm to our tables.
New Hours
The hot spots to eat are the all-you-care-to-eat Milner Dining Hall and the Market Café. The hours of operation at the main dining hubs have been extended with Milner open until 7:30 every night and Market Café open until 11pm Sunday through Thursday for those craving a late night snack.  For more information about the hours, menu options, and locations, visit Where to eat or download the "App on Campus" available for the iPhone and Android on either a smartphone or tablet.

Delicious Food and New Offerings
The best part about the new Dining Services is that they provide a little bit of something for everyone.  The difference in freshness will be most noticeable when sinking your teeth into a real, hand-crafted, made-to-order beef burger cradled by a lightly toasted bun topped with fresh romaine lettuce, a cherry red tomato and your choice of condiments such as the sriracha mayonnaise, that is if you like a little spice.  For those looking for a lighter meal, check out the new Chop'd and Wrap'd options at the Market Café. Choose a salad or a wrap, choose your greens, protein, veggie, and or sauce and create your own meal. Have a craving for something sweet? Warm, fluffy Belgian waffles topped with your favorite garnishes are available all day. And, for the love of caffeine!  A hot beverage machine has been added to Milner with your choices of hot chocolate, original and French vanilla cappuccinos.
