“My favorite thing to do around campus is to go to the tea shops in uptown or go grab a bite to eat. The area surrounding the campus has amazing eateries and cafes where you can study with a nice cup of tea or a cookie, or go grab a nice meal with friends.” –Lauren Cunningham ’21
Uptown food and drink places include Kung Fu Tea (mentioned by multiple surveyed current students), Holy Cow, Insomnia Cookies, Seasons Pizza, The Bun Shop, Towson Hot Bagels, and Pho Dat Thanh. There are also chain favorites nearby like Subway, Chipotle, and Domino’s. There are also a variety of food places in Towson Town Center, ranging from sit down locations like The Cheesecake Factory, TGI Friday’s, and PF Chang’s to chain places like Chick-Fil-A and Burger King. There are also snacks and desserts, as well as other varied cuisines!

The Den, located in the basement of Newell’s dining hall, is a cozy eatery with a variety of options, including pasta and pizza, a deli, breakfast options, salads, and sandwiches , filled with comfortable booths.
My favorite place to eat on campus is the cafe in the admin building. Think about it, the president and provost work there, so that means the food is bomb! –Jason Wong ’20
