Welcome to Dining Services
Welcome to SIUE Dining Services. We are proud to serve students, faculty, staff, and the surrounding community with quality food options at a great value. Our goal is to provide diverse menus in comfortable and convenient environments that meet the evolving needs of our campus.
SIUE Dining features a variety of venues designed to enhance the student experience, including a food court with ten restaurant concepts, a coffee shop, two snack shops, two convenience stores, and full-service Catering Services that support both campus events and the broader community. As a growing and diverse university, we take pride in delivering excellence while remaining responsive to student engagement, inclusive dining needs, and operational responsibility.
At SIUE Dining Services, we recognize that food is more than nourishment - it is connection, belonging, wellness, and opportunity. As a department within Student Affairs, our work extends beyond daily operations. We play an active role in shaping the student experience by supporting basic needs, promoting health and well-being, developing student leaders through employment opportunities, and contributing to a vibrant campus community.
Every meal served, every student employed, and every partnership formed reflects our commitment to quality, sustainability, and continuous improvement. Through thoughtful planning, collaboration, and innovation, Dining Services strives to create spaces and experiences that support student success both inside and outside the classroom.
With Cougar Pride,
Jessica Alford
Director of Dining Services
