Vital Vittles has been serving students since 1972 and offers a diverse range of products, including frozen foods, produce, meat, and cereal, all at lower prices compared to nearby grocery stores. The store also features a selection of sandwiches, chips, and drinks for convenient meals on the go, along with a growing variety of vegetarian, vegan, and organic products. Recent additions include prepackaged salads and gourmet sandwiches from local favorites. The business is located in a great area and operates with convenient hours from 9:30 AM to 1 AM. Customers appreciate that the lines are usually short and the staff is generally friendly, although some suggest that staff members could be more engaging with customers instead of conversing among themselves. While there are occasional issues with stock running low and some complaints about overcharging, many find the prices to be very affordable. However, the quality of the sandwiches has received mixed reviews, as some feel they could be improved. Overall, Vital Vittles remains a preferred alternative for students over nearby convenience stores, earning positive feedback for its offerings and accessibility.
