EAT YOUR HEART OUT
Wood-fired pizza, California burgers, street tacos and more - the Highlander Union Building, dubbed the HUB, satisfies any craving.
Renovated from a historic horse stable, the Barn has been transformed into a legendary dining spot, patio bar and entertaining space. Sip on signature craft beers infused with UCR citrus (21+).
Bytes Café is a personal favorite of engineering students, known for quick bites (try the flatbread pizza!), conveniently located in BCOE's Winston Chung Hall.
What Students Are Saying:
