Visiting

Guests

Berkeley Dining’s services are tailored for our core campus customers, however, our facilities are open to the public.

We welcome you into any of our locations. Below is some helpful information for campus visitors

Meal Vouchers

Groups of 25 or more are required to make a reservation through our Meal Vouchers Department. Please email us at mealvouchers@berkeley.edu to initiate the reservation process. Large groups without a reservation may be turned away at the door.

For questions, please contact us through email at mealvouchers@berkeley.edu.

Pricing

Anyone with a meal plan may use flex dollars for guests they invite (including children) to the dining commons. This is an even greater value considering meals in the dining commons are all-you-care-to-eat.

Here is the cost of a guest meal when using flex dollars versus cash.

*Please note that as of August 12, 2024 the price per meal has increased one dollar/flex dollar. The below numbers reflect the current pricing.

Meal Service Cash*
Breakfast $13
Lunch / Brunch $15
Dinner $17
Children (ages 5 to 11) $10.50
Children under age 5 Free

Anyone who wishes to eat in the dining commons may do so if they pay in cash; they also may bring children and pay the children’s rates. You do not need a meal plan or a Cal 1 Card.
