The CU-Boulder campus is home to numerous spots to refuel during the school year. With the end of the semester in sight, don't forget there are plenty of quick, convenient places to grab a bite or a cup of coffee or tea.
The Laughing Goat in Norlin Library
The Laughing Goat is where you are most likely to find your bespectacled academics and petal-to-the-metal paper-writing intellectuals. It’s a great place to get things done and sip some organic, fair trade, Boulder-type coffee with those pretty foam designs on the top. Personally, I recommend the blueberry scones, but be careful- they’re addictive.
Pekoe Sip House in ATLAS 1st floor
For us non-coffee folk out there, Pekoe offers the great tea alternative. With all kinds of crazy tea drinks, as well as the pure originals, you can’t go wrong. With winter coming, be sure to try the Peace of Mind (so good!) and snag one of their tables to chit chat with friends or accomplish something productive.
The Center for Community
The C4C is the better, more thought out version of a college dining hall, with globally diverse fare and vegetarian, gluten-free, and allergen labeled options. The absolute best thing about the C4C, however, is Pho Friday at the Black Coats station. Trust me, the line that stretches halfway around the dining hall is worth it!
Farrand Market in Farrand Hall
Farrand Market is a great place to grab a quick to-go meal, or wait your turn for a really, really good burger (be sure to tell them to cook it one level more rare than you actually want). Healthy options as well as delicious sandwiches and pastas abound, just don’t be the person that holds up the line!
Village Express at Williams Village
Willy Vanilly’s favorite source for daytime nourishment, the Village Express is the only known campus source of the takeout-breakfast. There are all kinds of options here including made to order hot food as well as grab-and-go type things for when that super dependable BuffBus (not) is just about to pick up.
Jamba Juice in the UMC
Jamba Juice is the ultimate 3 p.m., did-so-much-homework-I-can-barely-think energy juice. Thick smoothies and fresh juices can substitute as a meal when you just can’t make it to get solid food, but you won’t even mind- they’re filling and delicious, they’ll make you forget about that weird UMC smell while you study binge.
Etai’s at Biofrontier Building
Your one stop shop for sandwiches, salads, pastries and beverages, Etai’s Café is a convenient and delicious source of sustenance. Etai’s is located conveniently just past Muenzinger and is quick and easy between classes.
