Dining

Exciting changes to dining at Bucknell are coming in 2024-25!

On July 1, Bison Kitchen officially began operations as the University's new dining partner. With the change comes a delicious, globally inspired and frequently rotating mix of new on-campus dining options. Expect brand new selections across campus dining venues — including all new eateries in the Bison and at the Commons Café as well as a new look and new flavors on the menu in Bostwick.

Meal plan options have not changed for the 2024-25 academic year. New this year, the Anytime Access meal plan will offer two meal trades per week in the Bison and Commons Café during specified hours. Bucknell will work with the dining partner to reimagine meal plans by the second year of the contract.
