UPDATE: Article updated Aug. 8 to reflect that Grubhub is now live at Gilbert’s.

By: Kelly Huth

There will be a new way to order your favorite foods on—and off-campus—starting in the fall semester. Dining Services will be partnering with Grubhub Campus to allow students, staff, and faculty to order pickup from select campus dining locations.

Craving your vanilla sweet cream cold brew from Gilbert’s? At the start of the fall semester you’ll be able to place your order through the Grubhub app and pick up at Gilbert’s. Your dining account and Pard Dollars will be linked through the Grubhub app. Meal swipes or Pard Dollars can be used for on-campus mobile orders. 

In the fall Grubhub Campus will be available at Gilbert’s Coffee House, Cinco, Lower Farinon, Skillman Cafe, and ECO Cafe. Check Lafayette Today for more details in the coming weeks.

Please note: Grubhub is now live at Gilbert’s for mobile ordering and is open for in-person ordering.
