Lesley University offers a variety of dining options and meal plans for commuter and residential students. Our main cafeteria, Washburn Dining Hall, is our full-service dining hall located on South Campus. Lesley also offers two cafés on our Doble residence campus and one on our Porter academic campus. Students can choose from several full-service meal plans, commuter block plans, or a la carte cash options.
Reduced Meal Plans 2024–2025
The reduced meal plan option is no longer available after the Add/Drop period, which closed on September 9, 2025. Students will not be able to change their meal plan until the next semester. For reference, please see the updated brochure (attached to this article) for meal plan details.
