Bryant Sports Grill is my favorite dining hall and is the favorite of many of the university’s labor and maintenance employees, probably because it offers two meat choices and better pizza. It is also close to the Honors College, so I could go there on my 30-minute lunch breaks. As an interesting fact, most people will refer to the manager of Bryant as “Mama.”

Dinner at Bryant costs 19.75 (a 9.75 upcharge), but I had some service recovery certificates good for any dining hall, so I used them for dinner at Bryant. Considering that there were only 15 people eating dinner compared to hundreds at Lakeside, it was a nice, quiet dinner. Bryant is also the only dining hall that provides trays and generally has larger portion sizes.

I’m not buying a meal plan right away as Bama Dining was doing some interesting promotions to get students to purchase meal plans later in the year (ie refer a friend and you each get 5 free meals; which could make for a very lucrative conga) and I want to git rid of the freshman 15.
