This is awful, please allow students to change their meal plans for the spring. The quality and availability of food is unacceptable. There are literally thousands and thousands of families ANGRY that they paid $2k for an unlimited meal plan only to spend hundreds of dollars more paying for other food because the food is awful and unavailable for 2-3 days every week

Was told I can't eat there cause I wasn't a student. Was told I had to leave and I work on campus.

My meal plan is mandatory and I only use it for meal equivalency because the included locations are horrible. In the first two weeks of the fall semester, 3 of my friends have suffered from food poisoning because of the food options at stokely. I refuse to go to this location for this reason and instead spend money out of pocket or through my dining dollars since my other option is food poisoning. Please figure out better dining plans and do not make them mandatory unless they are decent.

As a senior mechanical engineering major at the University of Tennessee, I have a vast amount of experiences dealing with UT dining at their many locations. Have you ever been to a UT football game and been like, “why is a bottle of water $4 or $6?†Well UT dining, it's meal plans, meal equivalencies, P.O.D. locations, and dining halls are even more of a rip off. The amount that they are profiting on young college students is ridiculous. All their numbers are online, just do the math. I understand we live in a free market economy, but what their doing is taking advantage of students and parents. As a student whose EFC, estimated family contribution calculated by the FAFSA, has been $0 for last 5 years, it has made it incredibly difficult to purchase food at any of the UT dining locations. Attempt to go to Southern Kitchen and pay with a credit card or attempt to buy anything at a P.O.D. location and you'll understand the incredibly high and unnecessary mark-up on food. Everything is maximized for profits which drastically diminishes quality and makes the time to get your food that much longer. Ever wonder why every line on campus is always 20 minutes long? That's exactly what UT dining wants. If they do it that way, they maximize the efficiency of their staff. But for a student who wants a $1 bagel in his 15 minute break between classes, you're out of luck. My best advice, regardless of if you have money or not, don't be foolish and waste your money on UT dining. Drive to the Kroger or Aldi down Kingston and it'll make your life so much easier and you'll save hundreds. I make 5 sandwiches for lunch during the week and I do it for the same price they charge you for 1 sandwich. One really smart option is to go to Nama on Monday or Thursday for half price sushi or go to Copper Cellar for their burger night on Wednesday. Even if you have the scholarships to pay for a meal plan, don't buy it. Get your direct deposit refund and then use that money to buy food at grocery stores and pocket or invest the rest. I really wish someone had told me this before I started UT.

As a UT student, I would hope the campus dining that I was forced to pay over $2,000 to my first year would be more helpful with matters, however they are extremely unhelpful in fixing problems with meal plans and do not care about how at risk financially they put students by not helping. Specifically Alan Paul, was very unhelpful and condescending when I approached him with my problem, I will never be purchasing a dining plan from these people again, nor will I give a dime to them after I graduate. They do not care about individuals, just money. Also PCB always has bugs crawling all over the desserts, so I'd stay away from there.

Honestly, it's not that bad. Don't expect gourmet or 5 star chefs;it is a cafeteria. Good food.

There are very limited and unhealthy options, and some very questionable items are served to students.

If you didn't have to walk around the whole building to find the one drink machine that still had Powerade did you really eat at PCB?

I don't see what all the fuss is about, I had never met a picky college student before college, but I suppose I'm quite often suprised here.

students are forced to have a meal plan, so I eat here, but SUPER bland food, terrible dining hours and 9/10 employees SUCK!!! So unhelpful, apathetic and disrespectful, even when I go in everyday with a smile. It's so hard to find healthy options, and the salads are terrible. Sometimes, the food is decent, but usually its not. Also everything is CRAZY OVERPRICED!!!

My friend clark mentioned this place while we were discussing human trafficking. The omnipresent aura of depression is definitely appealing, especially after failing multiple tests the same day. I'd give it a ten out of ten but the food is atrocious. I've had better pizza behind a Walgreens in an alley. The employees look dead inside, which is a nice touch. Overall I'd definitely recommend this place for all the freshman that were forced to buy unlimited access to this God-forsaken wasteland
