What Students Are Saying
Food is food. Have to be fortunate to get free food here, even if most of the times its gross. The facility has to feed 4000 cadets so it is understandable. There is burger king, subway, wing zone, pizza, and a smoothie/coffee shop on base.
Andrea from Usaf Academy, CO
Everyone eats at Mitchel Hall unless you travel somewhere else to buy food. Some meals are great, some are bad; Typical college food.
Isaac from U S A F Academy, CO
It may come as no surprise that the dining facility, Mitchell Hall (also known as Mitch's or Billy's), tasked with feeding over 4000 cadets, three times a day, may not be able to produce the most gourmet fare out there. However, there is plenty of food to eat, and it's always free. If Mitch's doesn't suit your fancy, you can always get a pizza or some Chinese food delivered.
Logan from USAFA, CO
With every cafeteria, there are good meals, there are bad meals. Luckily we have a Godfather's Pizza, Burger King and a Subway on campus to help combat those days with bad meals.
Kathryn from USAF Academy, CO
It is military food.
Sam from Ladson, SC
The food is not the best, but it is still food. You are served a variety of food every week with some consistencies like pasta night every Monday.
Sarah from USAFA, CO
The meals at the main dining facility aren't spectacular, but do have good variety, as well as many healthy options. Cadets with special dietary needs are also provided for. There are also several other dining facilities across the campus, including a coffee shop, two Subways and a pizza place.
