Pioneer Dining Hall
Dining has a new look on campus!

We are excited to update you on a new year of dining at the U! M Food Co. is taking the place of M Dining, as announced in an email from University Services. You will notice a new look to our many dining venues, from new restaurants being brought to community spaces, to a change in operations to our residential dining halls - we are excited to open this new chapter.

M Food Co. brings an exciting and innovative new look and program to residential dining , including expanded hours of operation.  Student and staff meal plans have been updated based on community feedback and are now more accommodating and friendly to a variety of dietary needs. You can view meal plans and their pricing on our website.

In addition to residential dining changes, there are new concepts and innovations for retail locations throughout campus.  Self checkout kiosks are located throughout campus and mobile ordering is now here thanks to the Boost mobile app.  This app is free to download and we have compiled an easy guide on our site.

Another major difference you may notice is that FlexDine is now referred to as Dining Dollars. Dining Dollars operate in much the same way as FlexDine, with the notable change that they will now expire at the end of each spring semester in May. Dining Dollars are tax-free and many plans are available for purchase online. Gopher GOLD will continue to be accepted at dining and retail outlets.

Both meal plans and Dining Dollars will remain housed on your U Card, which can be swiped or tapped at venues around campus. You can view updated hours and locations across campus on the Dine on Campus portal.
