Rollins has some of the best campus food anywhere in the country, according to The Princeton Review and the College’s own students. The test-prep heavyweight placed Rollins at No. 10 (up from No. 15) in the Best Campus Food category of its annual ranking of the nation’s best 392 colleges.

The Best Campus Food ranking was based on a survey that asked students across America, “How do you rate your campus food?” From waffles and wood-fired pizza to fresh sushi and a hearty veggie burrito with a side of Mexican street corn, Rollins dining isn’t merely delicious, it’s also inclusive.

The recognition from The Princeton Review is the latest in a long line of accolades for Rollins’ dining. The College’s culinary acumen has also been recognized among the nation’s best by everyone from Niche and the National Association of College & University Food Services (NACUFS) to The Daily Meal and PETA2.

The College is committed to consistently expanding and enhancing its campus dining offerings. In keeping with that commitment, Rollins recently unveiled the 100-seat Tarpotle cafe in the East End Neighborhood, a brand-new residential community overlooking Lake Virginia.

From guava and brie melts and Cuban sunrise sandwiches to smash TarBurgers and made-to-order tacos, burritos, quesadillas, nachos, and bowls, Tarpotle offers a fresh and flavorful variety with something for every appetite.
