Robert Spitzer Dining Commons







Diverse Dining Experiences
The third floor of the MSOE Campus Center features the Robert Spitzer Dining Commons. This new area is the primary dining area for resident and commuter students, faculty, staff, and campus visitors. The Robert Spitzer Dining Commons is open seven days a week. Hours on weekdays are from 7 a.m. – 10:30 p.m. Weekend Hours are from 10 a.m. - 9 p.m.
When entering the servery, students will swipe their MSOE ID card at the entrance. Guests are able to purchase a meal pass at the register.
MSOE challenges students to maximize their potential. This challenge requires healthy and nutritious dining options and collaborative spaces. Students’ expectations for healthy eating options are met through sustainable practices and locally sourced ingredients. The Robert Spitzer Dining Commons is an intentionally designed space to increase and enhance the capacity of food service to support students, faculty, and staff. The space creates community with tasty dining options, places to meet, spaces to study, and a game room to socialize in. The Robert Spitzer Dining Commons is the university's central gathering location.
