  • Anna Ferrini

They're friendly and efficient. I like the pizza, wraps, and some of the rotating soups, including their chili. The salsa to accompany breakfast tacos is nice. I usually have only a few min. & am generally able to get in and out quickly. March '22 update: Twas my first time back since they'd closed & remodeled. Paying with staff dining dollars doesn't seem to get one a discount anymore, but it's still handy. July '22 update: There aren't as many food options, possibly due to the summer lull [confirmed], but I've gotten some grab n go, drinks, and breakfast tacos lately.

The increase of college food pricing seemed inevitable given the constantly growing cost of collegiate education. Unfortunately, Littlefield Patio Cafe did not escape the price hikes. Meal combos increased in price and no longer include a fountain drink. The fantastic pizza deal is sadly no more. The quality of cooked vegetables still rivals only that of a high school cafeteria. I pretty much only come here nowadays for caffeine and sitting outside on the patio to eat food acquired elsewhere. If you are going to eat here regularly, it's worth purchasing the reusable carryout box to get an additional discount beyond the 10% Bevo Bucks payment offers.

Unlike other coffee joints on campus, this joint has chosen to stay in the stone ages and won't fill your own cup. Order coffee. Poor it from a double paper cup into your mug and then watch them throw it away. Managers know. Baristas don't like it. But no action was taken over the last year. Tried a few times hoping the policy may change but nothing. Now going out of my way to other great campus spots until I hear the problem is corrected. Edit: they have updated the policy. You can now get coffee in your cup using a plastic transfer portal to ensure no cooties are transferred. And the sandwich lady is simply a wonderful human being.

Employees seem incapable of (or unconcerned with) handing you an icy overpriced smoothie without getting it on your cup, and consequently your hands. If you want food, go to Kinsolving Market. If you want a smoothie, run far away from here.

  • Andrew Nolte

Very good for breakfast, other meals are a toss of a coin. Some of their staff, especially the people that check you out at the register, are very nice. They always make me smile before my early morning classes.

Croissant was not good and I ordered medium latte and some of it was missing because of foam.

  • Michael Asper

It's not bad, its not amazing. Definitely only worth going if you're paying with Dine In Dollars. Pasta is good. Everything else is mediocre

  • Chris Robison

Littlefield is a staple spot for Starbucks coffee and various breakfast and lunch foods. The hours are good during the semester.

  • David Freid

Lol a review for a dining hall on a university campus? It's good enough for sustenance, they have some good soups!

  • Aislyn Gaddis

Breakfast and coffee is here is great; however the lunch pizza is pretty average and the seating fills up quickly

  • Silvana Rodriguez

Best place to study on campus for sure, the baristas are so sweet and kind and the vibe is just immaculate :)

  • Just Me (Just me)

They have a couple of vegetarian options, some healthy options, & pre-made snacks. The staff is excellent.

  • Isaiah Valdez

Delicious. Make sure you use dine in dollars and not cash tho, cause it's kind of expensive :/

  • Anish Patel

The staff is always very nice and their pizzas/desserts are better than one would expect.

  • Thomas Scott

Great place to grab a cup of coffee and a bite to eat in the morning on the way to class.

  • Mark Blankenship

Nice selection of reasonably priced food. Great patio on the east side of the building.

  • Ramsay Snow

Good food, though not the most fun place to eat. Ah well, it's on a school campus.

  • Ryan Brenner

Not as many options as Kinsolving store. Come here if you want prepared food only.
