We frequented a sub shop downstairs just beyond the Donaldson parking lot.

Can’t remember the name. It was almost 50 yrs ago. My senior roommate introduced it to me probably my second day on campus. ** Edited by Hokie`79 at 5/1/2023, 1:53:09 PM

Sausage & Egg Biscuit rocks. Yum.**
seacain • 04/30/23 10:11 PM ET
Maybe they're living in the apartments behind there?**
saret • 04/29/23 09:12 AM ET
They are freshmen, so probably not likely.**
RJHokie • 04/29/23 09:22 AM ET
The burg is a food desert in my opinion.
GreenvilleVT • 04/29/23 08:23 AM ET
It ain't Charlottesville or Chapel Hill but better than Farmville. ;)
Old Line Hokie • 05/03/23 12:44 AM ET
It all started when Backstreets closed**
No_Limit_Hokie • 05/01/23 04:16 PM ET
Completely agree...**
flhokie25 • 04/30/23 06:15 PM ET
That's not what food desert means...**

There's def a lack of "high end" places...a lot of middle of the road

It would nice to have more than a handful of
GreenvilleVT • 04/30/23 08:11 AM ET
Just as an FYI that's not really what a food desert means.**
AbsolutVT03 • 04/29/23 08:32 PM ET
Just as an FYI I don’t care if it’s not what it means. **
GreenvilleVT • 04/29/23 09:59 PM ET
Yeah, why bother communicating better?
Pylons • 04/30/23 01:37 PM ET
People don't like to be wrong and respond as if it's round 2 of a fight.**
BG Hokie • 04/30/23 02:50 PM ET
My opinion of a food desert may be different than yours or wikipedias.
GreenvilleVT • 05/01/23 04:09 PM ET
make up your own language and nobody will understand you
ShockWaveVT • 05/02/23 01:27 PM ET
Let’s use this example. It might be easier to understand.
GreenvilleVT • 05/02/23 01:43 PM ET
Your interpretation of what it means is wrong. It has infinitely more to do
BG Hokie • 05/02/23 09:05 AM ET
No surprise there. Ignorance is bliss.
AbsolutVT03 • 04/29/23 10:45 PM ET
That’s funny. **
GreenvilleVT • 04/30/23 08:03 AM ET
There is room for growth for sure...
I love VT! • 04/29/23 12:30 PM ET
Definitely a desert. **

Never been to Auburn, but Clemson and Blacksburg are similar. Raleigh is

flhokie25 • 04/30/23 06:21 PM ET
Absolutely agree **
fsghokie • 04/30/23 11:54 AM ET
Agree 100%. We are Blacksburg Part timers and Food is not an issue for us.**
UTPr0sim • 04/30/23 07:52 AM ET
Agree 100%
NativeBurger • 04/29/23 08:52 AM ET
When 50% of the population is transient, most only being there for ~9...
EDGEMAN • 04/29/23 08:52 AM ET
Auburn has some really good restaurants.
GreenvilleVT • 04/29/23 08:58 AM ET
Depends on what you are looking for.
RJHokie • 04/29/23 08:27 AM ET
Seems like C’ville about same size has many more dining options**
Hacker • 04/29/23 10:19 AM ET
The Cville/Albemarle area has about 50k more in population
RJHokie • 04/29/23 10:23 AM ET
Probably more disposable income in Charlottesville/Albemarle.**
Femoyer Hokie • 04/29/23 05:11 PM ET
In some areas, but the cost of living there is high. **
RJHokie • 04/29/23 07:58 PM ET
Well, that explains it, I saw 44,000 vs 46,000**
