Welcome UW Faculty and Staff!
Pay with cash or your Wiscard!
(Campus Cash account)
We invite you to visit our dining rooms, carryouts, and coffee houses during the academic year for your meals, snacks, and specialty coffee drinks. University Housing Dining and Culinary Services offers high quality food, affordable prices, and daily specials.
Why does a cash customer pay a different price than a student who lives in the University Residence Halls?
At University Housing, we have a responsibility to provide the highest quality food at reasonable prices for our residents. Residents pay for overhead costs as part of their room rates, so their purchase price reflects only the cost of food.
Starting in January 2013, Non-Resident cash customers will pay only an additional 30% of the posted price of an item. Non-Resident Wisccard customers will save 5% off of the Non-Resident cash customer price (thus paying an additional 25% of the posted price of an item). Beginning in January 2013 the former cash meal deal will no longer apply. Please see below for sample pricing with the 2013 pricing structure.
