Faculty, Staff and Graduate Student Dining Room in Tech Institute

Enjoy delicious hot and cold buffets in a linen-tabled, tranquil surrounding right within Tech.

The dining room is for faculty, staff, graduate students (with faculty advisor), and their guests.

Lunch is served Monday through Friday from 11:30 AM to 1:30 PM in the Jerome B. Cohen Commons, L482, 4th floor north, Tech Institute. The dining room is open fall, winter and spring quarters.

A menu board outside the front door and at the beginning of the buffet displays the menu for the current week. Choose either a Full or Lite Buffet lunch which includes one pass through the line and beverage. Enjoy dessert for a nominal additional charge.

New this year is an enhanced salad bar and special menu events featuring visiting chefs preparing made-to-order delicacies.

Come and enjoy a delicious meal with your colleagues and friends in a delightful setting. Or, if you're in a hurry, you can carry-out. Reservations for groups of 4 or more can be made with Jason Grocholski at j-grocholski@northwestern.edu
