#3. South Pointe at Case Hall and The Edge at Akers Hall
Among the top three most popular cafeterias, South Pointe at Case Hall and The Edge at Akers Hall both have gained public praise in South and East Neighborhoods.
They offer a wide variety of meats on their menu, which is reportedly the reason for their popularity. Their large seating places and sofas also make Case and Akers Dining Halls suitable and comfortable places to enjoy a meal.
The cozy facilities and tasty food in Case Hall are praised by students. Because it’s widely known as the biggest cafeteria in South Neighborhood, Case Hall attracts students who live or have class near South.
“Case Dining Hall is pleasant and the food in there is delicious … and they also have sofas in the dining hall. My friend and I always meet there and do some homework,” said freshman Thomas Jones.
“The Case Dining Hall is the biggest and nearest cafeteria to me,” said engineering sophomore Ben Noble. “They always have fresh sushi, fries, chicken and pork. The sauce for the meat is so good that I want to go back to Case even though I have class so far away from my dorm.”
Akers Dining Hall has the same status as Case in East Neighborhood. Their meat menu is generally recognized as the best in the neighborhood. Student Ulises Martinez stated Akers has the most delicious daily meat at MSU including chicken, beef and BBQ.
#2. The Gallery at Snyder/Phillips Hall

The Gallery at Snyder/Phillips Hall is equipped with six food sections: Bliss, Brimstone Grille, Ciao, Latitude, New Traditions and The Berg. The menu for the last three sections changes every day.
Snyder/Phillips Hall is located near Auditorium Road and Grand River Avenue, which attracts a larger group of customers. The large number of tables and the general cleanliness of the cafeteria also makes people feel more comfortable and increases their willingness to come over.
“Snyder has so many choices of food,” said business freshman Austin Lee. “My favorite thing about Snyder Hall is that they have a long table for salad and sushi … and also they have couple meat section. There are a lot of tables in Snyder for students and others to enjoy their meal or study.”
Austin is not the only one who is impressed by the huge size of The Gallery. When some students first come to this dining hall, they are shocked by the huge spaces.
Pre-med sophomore Eric Williams said, “When talking about Snyder, the first thing comes into my mind is big. And it’s also busy; there always are a lot of people, but it also means Snyder is so delicious.”
#1. Brody Square in Brody Neighborhood
Brody Neighborhood, as all students know, has the biggest cafeteria at MSU. A lot of freshmen are attracted to Brody Square because of its reputation as a scenic spot. It has almost every kind of food and the homemade MSU Dairy Store ice cream is undoubtedly the bright spot in Brody.

Students state that sometimes they come over to Brody from South Neighborhood and even East Neighborhood just to have a taste of the “best” cafeteria at MSU.
Cafeterias with something special
Wilson Hall
For students who demand late night food, there are four cafeterias that offer late night food until midnight. Besides Brody, Snyder/Phillips and Akers Dining Halls mentioned before, Wilson in South Neighborhood is also highly-acclaimed by students because of the plentiful late night menu. The fried and Buffalo chicken wings are the most popular option. When Wilson offers chicken wings, customers have to queue for ages to get served.
