Dining

The Dining Hall at The Hun School is kind of like your own kitchen; sure, you’ll eat here, but you also may grab some hot chocolate between classes, meet with your advisor to discuss your college essay over bagels, or find a quiet corner in which to finish an assignment for class. 

Meals are made with in-season, locally-sourced ingredients, whenever possible. (And, even some ingredients that are grown in our own garden.) In addition to several hot selections each day, an extensive salad bar is always open, as well as gluten-free and vegetarian stations, homemade soups, a pizza oven and Italian café selections like stromboli and pasta, and all the fixings for your favorite deli sandwich. The Dining Hall is also home to one of the School’s most-loved items: the JB Creamery, a six flavor soft-serve ice cream machine with plenty of toppings. Boarders enjoy the added benefit of made-to-order grill fare like wings, fries, and burgers on the weekends, between meals.

Besides food, The Hun School Dining Hall offers nutritional guidance, specialty menus for holidays and events, and staff who embrace the value of breaking bread in a interconnected community.
