Oliver Dining

Oliver Hall offers it's own dining facility, where sleek, modern renovations have just been completed. In addition to the several entree choices per meal, a hot food specialty bar offers a variety of items such as Mexican, stir-fry, pasta or baked potatoes. Oliver also offers soup, salad, deli, and dessert bars, along with "induction cooking" stations featuring made-while-you-wait entrees prepared with ingredients you select yourself.

Seating just 250-350 students, Oliver provides a personal dining experience. It's proximity to Robinson Gymnasium, Allen Field House, soccer and baseball fields also make Oliver Dining Center central to your busy schedule.

  • Please have your KU Card or conference access card with you when you come to the dining center. We can't let you in without it!
  • Clean up after yourself! Please be considerate of your fellow diners and of the dining staff.
  • No food or drink take-outs. Eat and drink what you have selected in the dining room. Take your trays to the tray return.
  • Personal cups, mugs, or glasses: leave them in your room!
  • Please take only what you know you will eat when you go through the line (you may return as many times as you like throughout the meal period for seconds). This helps us reduce waste and keeps your food costs low.
