Morrison Dining

Hands down the best university dining hall I’ve ever experienced. Open to the public at $16 for adults and ~$7 for kids, it’s an absolute steal considering the quality and scale. The space is massive and beautifully designed, even equipped with a “Discovery Kitchen” for live courses and cooking demos. The food stations are incredibly diverse: halal, West Side Grill, East Side Market, North End Pizza and Pasta, salad bar, dessert bar, fruit bar, yogurt bar, ice cream (from Cornell Dairy!), and more. Even in summer break, with some stations closed, the options were overwhelming in the best way. Highlights: • The pizza was top notch – fresh from wood-fired ovens. • Blueberry and banana yogurt? Dreamy. • The grilled fish was surprisingly delicious. • Tater tots and salad bar were far above average – packed with thoughtful toppings like artichoke, chickpeas, beets, and tuna salad. • Desserts were solid; the brownie was rich, and we had fun making waffles ourselves. • The ice cream options, while not mind-blowing, are generous and fun to explore (and hey, it’s Cornell Dairy). If I were a student here, I’d never want to eat off-campus. Absolute envy.

My favorite dining hall, employee meal choice during the week is the best! My favorite is the chicken and the salad bar.

Overall, one of the best dining halls on campus. Food quality is nearly as good as West Campus and the variety is solid. Breakfast is repetitive but in my opinion the best at Cornell. There is a lot of chicken for lunch and dinner, but the chicken dishes are pretty good. While the place often gets crowded, there's usually enough seating and the lines don't get too long. I wish there was less pork served (especially in the pasta), I wish that the customizable pasta station was open more, and I wish that they could hire more people and improve the dishroom operations to more consistently utilize reusable items. You can partially thank me for recent improvements in that last one, specifically involving separating your utensils into bins at the dish drop :)

Morrison Dining Hall is a brand new, modern, and huge area with a great variety of food - ranging from pastas & pizzas to breakfast omelettes and stir fry. The western omelette is delicious, as well as the blueberry & banana overnight oats.

Stopped by for lunch during Cornell Days. Was super busy during 12pm. My son enjoyed spotting the duckies throughout the dining hall. Ice cream, pizza, udon noodles were are good.

Best dinning hall in US universities. Totally blown away by the quality and variety of the foods. I had the best pizza in America so far. There are red pizza, white pizza, all kinds of toppings, and the crust is made perfect, all freshly from the real fire oven. Price is also very reasonable. All foods are made to high quality restaurants standards.

One of the best dining halls at Cornell. Lots of options and the pizza is the best on campus.
