 There are many restaurants and convenience stores in Ewha campus for students and visitors to enjoy which provide everything from dishes to snacks. For instance, there is Main Dish, Dr. Robbin, GS25 and some cafeterias inside buildings. Although there are many places to eat on campus, every year freshmen have trouble finding them. Eventually they end up with expensive but poor restaurants off campus simply because they don’t realize where on-campus facilities are. Therefore, we would like to give them this information.

For Simple and Fast Foods 

 Ewha Sarang is located in the POSCO building on the first floor. Ewha Sarang is especially famous for Tuna Gimbap to Ewha students because of its taste, quantity and price. But also there are various kinds of gimbaps like Kimchi, Tuna, and Anchovy Gimbap and seasoned rice wrapped in a fried tofu bag. The Gimbap here is cheaper than at other snack bars. Its cost ranges from 1700 to 2800 won. In Ewha Sarang, there are many long tables and chairs, so we can eat foods with friends or alone freely. However, during the semester, since it is popular to students, we have to wait about 20-30minutes to grab some gimbap.

 A cafe, PARA, is located in the POSCO building on the first floor near Ewha Sarang. It has various drinks like Americano, Cafe Latte, Cafe Mocha, Lemonade so on. As students usually use that cafe, each price is much cheaper than other cafes. The price range is from 1,000 won to 3,000 won. Though its price is very low, it is as tasty as other famous coffees. Actually, Para’s coffee and Ewha Sarang’s Gimbap would do.

 Also, in the ECC students can stop over and grab some food at GS25, which is a convenience store. It has a great deal of food and drink which students eat quickly and buy cheaply like Ramen, Gimbap, Coke, Coffee so on. GS25 usually becomes the only place students can go during exam periods, because it opens all day.

Ewha University's Cafeterias

 In Ewha there are also places that offer good foods at cheap prices. The most popular cafeteria is located in the Human Ecology Building, Morris Hall, which is spacious so it accommodates more than 500 students. It serves a variety of meals and waffles for lunch and dinner at 11:30 am to 5 pm. Furthermore, Asan Engineering Building has a student cafeteria which is located on the upper part of the Science Hall so it is far from the main gate. It takes 20 mins from the gate, offering Korean traditional meals for lunch. Service time during the term is 9 am to 6:30 pm but on vacation it is 9 am to 4 pm. Lastly, there is a cafeteria in Helen Hall which is located across from Centennial Library. Especially, Tonkatsu and Spaghetti with tomato sauce are the most popular meals.

 All campus cafeterias serve their meals from 1,000 won to 3,500 won except for Sodam in Morris Hall, so students feel the price is appropriate without pressure.

For Formal Foods

 There are some formal restaurants in Ewha, which are good for inviting friends or family. The restaurant pictured on the left is called the Main Dish, and is located in the food court on the B4 floor of the ECC. It has various menus which are in other places like Shinsegae and Lotte. The price of foods is a little bit expensive but it provides high-class tastes.

 The restaurant pictured in the middle is Dr. Robbin, which is located on B4 of the ECC near the Art House. As its slogan is "slim and healthy", it sells foods which are good for health like pumpkin soup, homemade waffles, and muffins. Though the price of foods is also a little bit high, it is a suitable place for those thinking about health.

 The restaurant pictured on the right is "Areamddle" located near the central library. It sells a great deal of foods as well as fruits, snacks, drinks, and bread. The price range is from 1500 to 6000 won. It offers breakfast sets including items like like coffee, toast, salad, and soup from 7:30 to 10 a.m. Also it has a delivery service when we order two or more meals, so students who are busy and don't go there could access that service.

 To be more helpful, we checked various restaurants and student cafeterias. We introduced some places on campus for those who have little information about Ewha’s dining places. This article will help you to decide where to visit in different situations and save the time to ruminate about menu. Also, many acquaintances usually visit Ewha to watch plays or movies and to meet us. How about showing your friends or parents Main Dish or Dr. Robbin? They will be satisfied with the dishes and think you are a sensible person. Try to visit the restaurants and find out what your favorite dishes are because eating is one of the greatest pleasures in life.
