The inside is so cool, it looks like you are almost sitting inside a tree, and they are always playing really soothing music, so it's a nice place to sit and study or just hang out before going back to class. –Grace Muzny

Even though I am sometimes intimidated by students dressed in business suits, I love grabbing a cup of coffee from the Starbucks in Paccar Hall. The brand-new facility is beautiful and never feels crowded. Though I'm not a business student, I frequent Paccar often. –Olivia Kozyra

The menu is fantastic, the food tastes great, and there are many tables to sit at to eat and study or meet with friends or professors. It's also a great location because it is close to the water. Not only can you enjoy a chicken panini and iced coffee, but you can watch all the boaters and rowers pass by. –Abigail Ahyong

This café is closest for students who spend time in Condon Hall or Terry-Lander. It's a great place to grab coffee or a sandwich, and they have delicious frozen yogurt, too! I live off campus, so I stop here frequently on my way to or from my apartment.
