Dining Options

Lawrence currently has two dining halls, one on each side of campus: Downer Commons and Lucinda’s Dining Hall.  Both offer a variety of meal choices and have vegan and vegetarian options available at every meal.

Downer Commons is open for breakfast, lunch, and dinner seven days a week. It offers three lines that change throughout the day.  Salad and soup bars stay out all day, as well as dry cereal.  Downer offers continuous service from 7am to 8pm. during the week.  

Lucinda’s is open for breakfast and lunch Monday through Friday, and dinner Monday through Thursday.  Lucinda’s has homemade soup and bread daily and a soft-serve ice cream bar.  You can get meals to-go at Lucinda’s any day of the week. 

The Grill is the third eating option on campus.  It is located in Memorial Union and offers lunch foods like wraps, sandwiches, burgers, Paninis, and a soup and salad bar.  The Grill has snacks and a continental breakfast bar with bagels, muffins, scones, dry cereal, and fruit.  The Grill is open from 8am to midnight Monday through Friday, and weekends from noon to midnight.
