Renovated Goldstein Food Hall Celebrates Grand Reopening

Over the summer, Auxiliary Services and Campus Planning, Design, and Construction overhauled the dining area at the Goldstein Student Center on South Campus. Now christened Goldstein Food Hall, the brightly-lit new space reopened to customers on Sunday, Sept. 3. 

The Tomato Wheel is one of the restaurants that recently re-opened in the renovated Goldstein Food Hall.

Featuring a mix of familiar food favorites and new dining concepts, Goldstein Food Hall includes:

• ‘Cuse Scoops: The second location of this classic ice cream stand (the other is located at Drumlins Country Club) features dipped waffle cones, sundaes, milkshakes, sundae stackers and stuffed shakes.
• Original Orange: Rice and noodle bowls with a variety of fresh, flavorful toppings. Initially, this stand will offer several Tex-Mex flavors, but it will eventually mix in other cuisines.
• Otto’s Juice Box: The popular smoothie shop from the Barnes Center is now serving all of your favorite fruit smoothies in Goldstein Food Hall.
• Pickles Deli: Made-to-order artisan and signature sandwiches. Looking for some toasted, melty goodness? Ask for your sandwich to be grilled on the panini press.
• Southbound: Burgers and the University’s much-loved chicken sandwich (with vegetarian and vegan options available!), served with tater tots or french fries.
• Starbucks Proudly Served at Goldstein Café & Bakery: Iced coffee, hot coffee and Starbucks favorites, plus daily sweet selections from the Syracuse University Bakery.
• Tomato Wheel: Classic pizza flavors and toppings; specialty pizzas, calzones, and pinwheels.

‘Cuse Scoops is one of several restaurants that opened in the newly-renovated Goldstein Food Hall.

The renovated Goldstein Food Hall also boasts newly-extended hours, meaning that students, staff and faculty can stop in for a coffee and breakfast to start their day, grab a quick and healthy lunch or enjoy a late-night snack while studying or doing laundry. All University South Campus shuttles make stops at Goldstein Student Center.

Using a Meal Swipe at Goldstein

As in previous years, Goldstein will continue to accept cash, credit, Dining Dollars and ‘Cuse Cash. New for this year: If students have an unlimited meal plan or a block meal plan, they can now use a meal swipe to purchase food at Goldstein Food Hall. Here’s how it works:

• Once per meal period (breakfast: 8-10:30 a.m.; lunch: 10:30 a.m.-3 p.m.; dinner: 3-11 p.m.), students can use a meal swipe to purchase food at Goldstein.
• The swipe will have a dollar equivalency, depending on the meal period: Breakfast will be $10, lunch $14, dinner $18.
• Students can select any food items they wish and tell the cashier that they’re using a meal swipe, and a meal will be deducted from their plan. If the selected items cost more than the equivalent amount, the remainder can be paid with Dining Dollars or ‘Cuse Cash.
