Eating Healthy

Your dining team proudly provides you with healthy options every day. We help you select delicious, nutritious and satisfying meals, snacks, and desserts by highlighting well-balanced menu choices and providing nutritional information, and dietary tips that fit your needs.

Food Allergies

We take pride in sourcing wholesome ingredients, preparing recipes accurately and providing nutritional analysis and ingredient statements through our online menus and nutrition calculator. We are all passionate about serving students. From general manager to front-line servers, we work diligently to address students’ specific needs, especially students with food allergies, Celiac disease, or special diet requirements.

A team approach led by you, our educated consumer, is the best preparation for a safe school year free of allergic reactions. We want to meet one-on-one with all of our customers who have individual dining needs to ensure that their dining experience is safe, delicious, and social. If you have a food allergy/special diet concern, please call or send us a note using the feedback form.

Gluten Free Dining

Our dining locations offer many gluten-free options to our students with Celiac disease or gluten intolerance. Many of the meals offered in our cafes are free from gluten-containing ingredients. Please do take note that our gluten-free options are prepared in a kitchen containing gluten ingredients, although we do take care to avoid cross contamination. Waves Café, Nature's Edge, Starbucks, Jamba Juice, and the HAWC Store also offer pre-packaged gluten-free meals and snacks.

Dining Vegan and Vegetarian

There are many option across campus that cater to vegan and vegetarians. We have a dedicated vegan station at the Waves Cafe called Sprouted. We have vegan and vegetarian options at nearly every other station within the Waves Cafe. We offer a vegan crust and vegan cheese at the Oasis Pizzeria, a vegan taco at Taqueria, and a wide variety of options at our other venues across campus. 

If you have any questions, or need clarification, please do not hesitate to contact us.
