Cafeteria and Dining
Dining at University Hospital
Our chefs, culinary staff and registered dietitians are passionate about serving foods that are delicious, nutritious and support health and healing. Our menus focus on whole, minimally processed foods using the best quality ingredients.
We are proud to partner with Wisconsin farmers and producers to offer local and seasonal produce and artisan products on our menus and to promote economic growth and sustainability in our communities.
Harvest of the Month helps connect our UW Health community with fresh, seasonal eating all year long.
