Fresh Food Company/Dining Hall 6351 Tonsmeire Drive, Mobile, AL 36688

"As a freshman, the dining hall is great if you have no money and need some quick food, and that's about it. The food is almost inedible at times, the staff, with the except of maybe 2 or 3, are rude and cold, and don't really care if you make a special request. And there are ALWAYS flies. No matter where you eat in there, you will always have a fly buzzing around your plate, and they've been there so long, even if you swat them away, they are unfazed. It's disgusting, the menu is inconsistent, the food is nasty, and for how much you have to pay if you want a meal plan to even get the CHANCE to eat there without spending $10 just to see what they have, you'd think they'd be more caring about the atmosphere. Plus, when schools comes to visit and they eat at the dining hall, the staff treat them 20x better than they treat us. The kids that spent $5 to eat there get better treatment that then students who spend around $1500 per semester for a meal plan. Disappointing, don't waste your time."

"If you go to south I highly recommend finding a way to not get the meal plan whether that be moving off campus or whatever. It is an absolute ripoff as the cheapest plan is 2000$ a semester. They have the worst foods I have had in mobile and half the time they don’t even have food. There are times I go into this place just looking for something to satisfy my hunger as I do not want to go out to eat or cook something myself but most of the time I end up leaving hungry. I can say with confidence that in the 2 years I’ve been at south the meal plan is the worst 8000$ I’ve spent."

"I don’t care what anyone says, the caf food is good. The people who complain about it have never had Mobile County Public School food. I like they’re vegan/vegetarian options. The vegans options are always tasty and flavorful, unlike a lot of vegan food out there. The only that gets is that the staff is BEYOND lazy. They never refill the condiment dispensers and they take their sweet time bringing out cups and silverware. If you tell a staff member they’re out of something they’ll say, “okay” and just keep doing what they were doing. Sometimes they’ll just give you an eye roll or ignore you. Annoying as hell."

"Unless you can eat hamburgers or pizza everyday, 9 times out of 10 the food is so bad I wouldn’t give it to my dog. Every now and then you’ll come across something that actually tastes good, but as far as nutrition goes...you can forget it. There’s a handful of people on the staff that are actually nice, the rest sigh and roll their eyes if you ask them to do the smallest task. This place needs new management NOW!"
