West End at Cochrane Hall

Formerly known as West End Market, this dining facility has been a student favorite since it opened in 1999. Home to six distinct dining concepts, West End offers a variety of flavorful and high-quality meals, from the signature London broil at JP’s Chop House to fresh Asian salad bowls at Leaf & Ladle and classic burgers from the Fighting Gobbler.

Beyond its daily offerings, West End hosts several highly anticipated dining events throughout the year, including Oyster Day and multi-course Valentine’s Day dinners.
