West End at Cochrane Hall

West End is a pioneering marketplace-style dining experience that opened in 1999, and replaced the 1982 Cochrane Dining Hall. Known for plant-forward options, vegan cookies, and Leaf and Ladle's Braised Tempeh Bowl, it offers made-to-order dishes like London broil, lobster, and steak daily. A 2011 renovation expanded seating, kitchens, and storage.
