Off the Grill

The day begins at the grill, where a hot breakfast is available. For the remainder of the day through dinner,  you’ll find standard grill fare—burgers, grilled chicken, fries, vegetarian options, and Halal meats (on request). Late night options at the grill are taken to-go. We offer nightly specials, made to order quesadillas or omelets, hamburgers, and breakfast casseroles.

Homestyle

A beloved favorite among the Hendrix community, the homestyle line is where you can find classic lunch and dinner entrees including plant-based choices, as well as a hot vegetable station with fresh selections, along with potatoes, sweet potatoes or rice.
