Locations

Dining Commons

The place to be on campus, "the DC", is open for service seven days a week (during regular school days). From 7:00am until 7:00pm, you can stop by for a quick snack or see what's sizzling at the grill. The DC provides scrumptious all-you-can-eat dining for the Westmont College community as well for a great price. Don't miss our Flash in the Pan series every week at the DC where our chef will be making a tempting dish right before your eyes. Stop by the DC anytime for a hot fresh brewed cup of coffee. We look forward to serving you at the DC. Stop on by! DC Menu

The Study

The Study is a great place to jolt in and out during lunch if you're in a hurry and don't have the time to wander through the DC. The Study is open conveniently for late night customers trying to conquer those late night munchies or needing a place to study, relax or meet with friends. Our commitment to your dining experience will be tempted by a fantastic cuisine for a great price. Those late night munchies or needing a place to study, relax or meet with friends. Network cables are provided for the ports made available.

DC Food in The Study

We understand the allure of taking DC food into The Study. However, due to the seating needs of others purchasing lunch there, food from the Dining Commons is not permitted in The Study from 11:00 AM-2:00PM Monday through Friday. At all other times, if you take DC food into The Study, you must return the DC dishes to the DC dishroom. Thank you for your cooperation!

Study Lunch Fax Orders

Did you know you can fax your order to The Study and have it ready when you get there? Sodexho has made a commitment to having your order ready when requested and is backing it up with a guarantee. Make your selection from the daily specials or the regular menu. Orders must be faxed to The Study at least 30 minutes before the requested pick-up. If your order is not ready in 30 minutes, it is half off. Fax your order from any on-campus extension fax line as indicated on the study fax order form. Guarantee applies to parties of less than four (4).

 

Whatever your event - a breakfast meeting, a faculty luncheon, a retirement party, or a special celebration, you will find that we offer fresh ingredients, creative and elegant presentation, and thoughtful services. We would be please to help you design a menu for your next event. Have a look at our ON-LINE CATERING SYSTEM for some of our offerings.
