Sustainability Dining Initiavites
At many of our locations, we proudly serve ground beef, chicken, salmon, and seafood that are 100% fresh and delicious! Try a juicy hand-formed burger at TDubs, Traditions, The Lions Den and C-Street Grill, or tasty salmon at Quimby’s Rotisserie, or indulge yourself with tender chicken at TDubs, Traditions, The Lions Den and C-Street Grill - all fresh and never frozen! By offering fresh foods, we aim to provide delicious and healthy meals for every person dining at TCNJ. On top of that, all eggs served are certified cage-free.
With TCNJ Dining Services, you will find that all our desserts at Bliss Bakery, TDubs, Education Café, and The Library Café are baked in-house by our talented chefs. We offer freshly baked bread every day at 31 North Deli in The Atrium at Eickhoff and at SubConnection in The Lions Den. We also prepare and bake our own whole wheat dough daily reducing the need for deliveries, gasoline usage and carbon emissions.Stop Hunger
The College of New Jersey Dining Services hosts a Helping Hands Across America Food Drive to give back to our community and benefit the Mercer Street Friends Food Bank in Trenton, NJ. We work with organizations on campus to host a campus-wide challenge to collect non-perishable food. Since 2010, we have been overwhelmed with the generosity of our student community as well as our faculty and staff.

Vendors
- We have worked with our vendors to reduce the number of deliveries to campus and require a minimum order ensuring trucks are nearly full. This reduces pollution to our environment, while saving time and money.
- TCNJ Dining Services supports our local farmers in the tri-state area: PA, NJ, and NY. Offering locally grown produce is a part of our commitment to provide clients with fresh and great-tasting food while supporting communities where we do business.
- We also support the tri-state community by purchasing baked goods from local vendors.
- We partnered with Ecolab to use only green chemicals in all of our dining facilities.
