CSA To Offer Annual Restaurant Fest

The Commuter Student Association (CSA) is sponsoring their annual "CSA Restaurant Fest" on Thursday, April 30 from 11 a.m. - 2 p.m. For the event, the CSA is sponsoring meals for 108 University of Scranton students. Meals will include an appetizer, entrée, and dessert, each from a different downtown Scranton restaurant.

The goal of this event is to promote downtown restaurant businesses and encourage University students to explore the many diverse food options in downtown Scranton. The event includes six different meal routes. Each route will offer University students a different appetizer, entrée, and dessert from three different downtown spots. The routes will be assigned at random to participating University students, mindful of any dietary needs and offer students the chance to both try new downtown restaurant businesses while also enjoying a walk around downtown Scranton.

"Each year we do Restaurant Fest; I hear students tell me how much they loved trying new food without having to pay for it. Restaurant Fest is one of my favorite CSA events because students are offered a free, full-course meal that supports small, local businesses. I have found some of my favorite places to eat from this event that make Scranton feel even more special," said Jessica Ely '26, CSA president and biology major.

"Restaurant Fest gives students the chance to explore downtown Scranton, try new restaurants and support our thriving business community. It's honestly one of my favorite events of the year! It's such a fun way for students to experience the local food scene with options that make it inclusive for everyone, including vegan and vegetarian students," said Nora Flannery '27, CSA vice president and pre-med physiology and philosophy double major.
