Dining at Lewis & Clark


A Taste of the Pacific Northwest

Our food service provider, Bon Appétit, takes special care to offer visitors and summer guests many different meal options with vegan and vegetarian selections always available! With their Farm to Fork initiative, our dining hall and cafes strive to utilize locally sourced options from farmers around the Pacific Northwest whenever possible, giving our guests the opportunity to enjoy super fresh regional favorites.

Conveniently located at the center of our beautiful campus, Fields Dining Room serves our guests who select a meal plan option. The dining room is located in the Stephanie Fowler Student Center adjacent to our residence halls, and is capable of serving group sizes up to 425 per meal seating time. During the summer the dining room offers all-u-care to eat menus well suited to both adult and youth palettes, including options for vegetarian, vegan diets. Menu options for guests with medical dietary restrictions can also be made with advance notice.

The Conferences and Events staff arrange for guests to receive an electronically encoded meal card at check-in. Planning a field trip during your summer stay? No problem! Boxed to-go meals from the dining room can also be arranged.
