WELCOME TO DINING
Food is a vital part of college life. A meal with friends doesn’t just nourish the body, it builds lasting relationships and feeds the soul.At the same time, campus dining can also be a source of anxiety: Will there be options for me? What if I don’t have time to sit down? Will the food even be good? At Bon Appétit our passion is creating community through food. We make more than 200 million meals each year at college campuses, workplaces and cultural institutions that are not only delicious, they also embody core values – about from-scratch cooking, wellness, dignity, and sustainability – that we take very seriously. But that doesn’t mean eating at Pacific University has to be serious. We know plenty of students who would subsist on a diet of bar-shaped foods and late-night pizza if left to their own devices. We get it. But we can offer something more: Craveable made-from-scratch meals that fit into students’ lifestyles. Whether it’s a late-night craving for a kimchi rice bowl or a vegan protein smoothie on the run, we’re committed to breaking the bar-shaped meal and making delicious, wholesome food that works for real life. Let us show you how.
FOR YOUR SAFETY
The health and well-being of our guests is our top priority. As classes begin on campus, Bon Appétit Management Company is implementing rigorous sanitation and service measures to ensure students can dine with us safely and comfortably. These measures have been developed based on guidance from the Centers for Disease Control (CDC), health and sanitation experts from our company’s Coronavirus Response Team, and local health regulations. To learn more, please visit our website at www.pacificu.cafebonappetit.com.
WELLNESS
We plan café-specific menus and cook from scratch in each location. From simmering stocks to finishing sauces and roasting meats, our approach to food allows us to provide fresh foods from whole ingredients. Our approach allows guests to customize many cafe options to meet their personal dietary goals. We love to hear from you and can assist you in identifying your choices or even prepare foods to meet your needs. We take food allergies seriously. Our menu items are prepared from scratch in our kitchens each day using the freshest, highest quality selections available seasonally and regionally. As a result, we do not operate from corporate recipes and ingredients and products change frequently in our kitchens. If you have food allergy concerns, our well-trained chefs and/or registered dietitians will be glad to assist you with menu options to meet your dietary needs. Our chefs are the best resource for real time information about products and ingredients used in a specific dish that day. In many cases, we can make modifications as necessary. If you have a food allergy or other dietary restrictions, please connect with our General Manager and we will work with The Office of Accessibility and you to make sure you can enjoy plenty of delicious food, safely, with us.
BENEFITS OF A MEAL PLAN When choosing a meal plan, it’s important to consider how you like to eat. In the busy world of college life, students often spend a little more on retail items than they first expect. After years of gathering data on how students eat, we’ve learned that they typically do not eat three meals a day, seven days a week, on campus. Each plan can be augmented with Dining Dollars to ensure that funds are always available when hunger strikes. Life Should Be Easy — A meal plan means: No shopping. No dishes. No kitchen fires (hopefully). Plus, you don’t even have to carry cash. From Scratch = Flexible — We LOVE food, so we cook it from scratch. Stocks, sauces, soups, you name it. This means we can be flexible with our recipes to accommodate all sorts of dietary needs without any fuss. It’s our passion to create delicious food that suits every need and taste. Vegan, Flexitarian, or Gluten-Free? We’ll have options for you every day. Sustainable. Seriously. — Our commitments to environmentally and socially responsible sourcing are industry leading. We care deeply about where our food comes from. We know you do, too. Real Variety, Real Value — From global bowls to seasonal pizzas there’s always something new to try. With tons of choices in an all-you-care-to-eat environment plus tax-free dining the value is unparalleled. It’s Social — Sharing food is a perfect excuse to catch up with friends, and accidental encounters in the café are the spice of campus life. Our inviting dining spaces encourage lingering, and we regularly have interesting programs and events to keep things lively. Perks — Members of the meal plan get special benefits, like access to cool events such as a chef’s table dinner or Eat Local Challenge that rival those at local restaurants. Don’t miss out! Pssst...Parents — What parent doesn’t want the peace of mind that their child is eating right while away from home? (And what student wants to answer why they’ve ordered pizza delivery for 9 nights in a row?) Show your student some love and take care of them with a meal plan.

When the need to take out arises, present the caribeener at the cafe entrance and receive an Eco-Takeout container. Then just return it to us next time in and we will trade it for a caribeener.
