Market Eatery to reopen with fresh options

The Market Eatery will look a bit different when its doors reopen on Tuesday, Sept. 3 for the start of the Fall Term.

Brock Dining Services has taken student, staff and faculty feedback into consideration and implemented several changes over the summer to enhance customer experience.

“Through both our ‘Happy or Not’ kiosks and the Ancillary Services survey launched this past spring, we know that diners are looking for variety, quality and value,” says Malcolm Dales, Director of Conference and Dining Services. “This refresh of the Market space introduces new concepts and menu options to address those needs.”

Chop N’ Top, the Market Eatery’s salad bar station, is being replaced by Footlong, a sub concept offering signature subs that can be customized or made into salads.

Homestyle Kitchen has been rebranded Hot Express and is now the new home of the Market Eatery’s pizza selection. The station will continue to offer homestyle meals and comfort food in a convenient grab-and-go format.

Grille Works and Red Kettle Soup will remain in their current locations, while El Torito will move from its previous spot at the back of Market to the space formerly occupied by Italian Cucina.

Chopsticks, a new concept featuring stir-fry and Asian-inspired dishes, will open in El Torito’s former home on Monday, Sept. 23.

“Stir-fries are one of the most popular dishes in our Fresh Food Company Dining Halls,” Dales says. “Customers have been asking for something similar in the Market Eatery, so we’re excited to share the launch of Chopsticks with the Brock community.”

For diners on a budget, value options under $8 will now be offered at every station and identified with a red Badger Pick icon.

Dietary icons are also being reintroduced to the Market Eatery’s menu boards, making it easy for diners to identify options that are gluten-free, dairy-free, vegan, vegetarian, plant forward and Halal.

More information on Market Eatery brands and hours of operation can be found on the Dining Services website.
