What Students Are Saying
I enjoy the variety and choices at the cafeteria! They usually have a grill section, a home-cooked meal section, a sandwich/quesadilla line, a stir-fry line (highly recommend!) as well as pizza (which they make themselves) and salad. There is also ice cream, cereal, and waffles available at every meal for those who are so inclined.
CALISTA from Saint John, KS
Here is the deal about the food, IT IS A CAFETERIA! People all over the country at almost every college complain about the cafeteria food, it's not because the food is bad it's because you eat there 3 times a day 7 days a week. Now if we are comparing apples to apples Sterling has one of the best cafeterias for a small college. It was recently remodeled and has had an upgrade in the quality of food. When I talk to people who have eaten at other colleges cafeterias they are always saying Sterling's is way better.
Matt from Orange County, CA
The food is good. I wouldn't say I like it better than my favorite restaurants, but it is healthy, hearty, and keeps me alive.
Kara from Lone Tree, CO
The food there is good, and also healthy. There is a selection to choose from every single day. You most definitely will find something you like and after a great meal desserts are served as well and are freshly cooked by our staff.
Yolanda from Anchorage, AK
The cafeteria is fairly good; the downside is that you are not allowed to bring food out of it, aside from ice cream cones.
Stephany from Sterling, KS
We just got a brand new $1.5 million cafeteria put in. It is beyond gorgeous.
