Salem College Dining

We 💖 our staff! They are the heart and soul of our dining program, showing up every day to make great food and even better experiences.

It may be hot outside now, but who remembers when we brought the heat inside the refectory with Chef Kendall’s homemade hot sauce? 🌶️🔥

Sauce can truly make or break a dish—and this one delivered big flavor in every bite!

If you’re seeing this… it’s your sign to take a break and grab a snack 👀🍿

We don’t make the rules—we just follow them 😌✨

Where campus comes together ✨

Every table tells a different story.

Campus may be quieter, but the kitchens are still buzzing 👨‍🍳🌱

Our chefs are busy planning, tasting, and creating what’s coming next.

Fall flavors loading… 🍂

Beating the heat with iced coffee and community ☀️❄️

At this pop-up, students met Rachel, our Health & Wellbeing Manager, and learned more about the resources and support available for eating well on campus ☕🌱

A look back at pork belly ramen from our Farm Table Dinner 🍜✨

Crafted with care and full of flavor—definitely one to remember.

Anyone else missing our chefs’ creations? 👇

Moments shared with friends make everything tastier 🖤

From quick bites between classes to long meals at the table, it’s the people you’re with that make it special 🌿

Customization is always on the menu 🌱

One of our Refectory Creation Stations this past semester featured chicken & waffles with scratch-made tenders—built your way 🍗🧇✨

What would you add? 👇

It’s nice to be nice, but research shows that being kind is good for your health, too! Take a few minutes to each day in big and small ways. Smile. Encourage a friend. Help a stranger. Say please and thank you. Forgive. And don’t forget to be kind to yourself, as well.
