Campus Dining at Saint Mary's College

Saint Mary's partners with Notre Dame's Dining Services to provide the best nutrition and expanded options within the tri-campus community. We commit to the health of our community every day by diversifying the nutritional profiles of our menus to accommodate a variety of needs and preferences. See for yourself the quality of the Saint Mary’s dining experience. 

Tri-Campus Dining with Notre Dame and Holy Cross

At no additional cost, Saint Mary’s students have the option to eat at any dining hall on all three campuses. What's more, our shared Flex Points program (think of these as funds available on a debit card) allow Saint Mary's students to eat at Notre Dame's on-campus retail dining locations like Smashburger, Au Bon Pain, Starbucks, and many more. On Saint Mary's campus, Flex Points can be used at 1844 Cafe and Murphy's, providing tri-campus students with convenient and flexible food options every day of the week.

Nutritional Counseling

Whether it’s the initial transition away from home, or coping with the pressures of coursework and exams, many students benefit from individual coaching on nutrition and eating habits. Our nutrition services program director, Jocie Antonelli, is a registered dietitian whose expertise in developing nutrition strategies is matched by the relationships she develops with students as she guides them toward making more healthful choices.

Food Allergies and Other Dietary Considerations

If you have a food allergy, celiac disease, or other dietary considerations, Campus Dining at Saint Mary’s will work with you to ensure your specific needs are being met. Be assured that our managers, chefs, and leads are certified in food allergies and celiac disease. We use a labeling system that identifies the eight major allergens, and we have gluten free and other specialty products available to accommodate your needs.

To get started, please register your needs using the Food Allergy and Medical Condition Action Plan. 

For nutritional advising or if you have dietary questions or concerns, we encourage you to contact Jocie Antonelli at (574) 631-0106 or jantonel@nd.edu.

* Please note that sesame will be recognized as a major allergen beginning on 1.1.23. Campus Dining is actively beginning the process to label items that contain sesame.

**On occasion, due to supply chain issues or special chef creations, fluorescent starburst signs may be posted by an item. There will be a note indicating no food allergy or ingredient info is available. Those with food allergies or celiac disease should avoid these dishes or ask to speak with the chef for further information.

Dining Safety

Because the majority of the Saint Mary’s population will be vaccinated when students return in the fall, the Noble Family Dining Hall has resumed its pre-pandemic configuration. As we continue to monitor and follow local, county, and state health data, we will adjust our dining services if the need arises for increased safety measures. Outdoor tables and seating is available for carry-out dining for individuals who feel more comfortable in an open-air environment.
