Great selection, food is always fresh. Lots of healthy choices, and also delicious desserts and pizza. Only complaint is the food is barely warm most of the time. If the food was hotter, it would warrant an extra star.

Its a pretty comprehensive student rec center and dining location. The food was good when we visited over the summer for an event.

I can't say much, being a student of this College/University... and the fact that I've got eaten here for quite a while. It is for students, usually residents, only. You pay with money on your student balance via your student ID card. Though the few times I ate at the commons, it was quite delicious.

This has got to be the best kept local dining secret. For about $8 you can enter and eat at the Piedmont College dining hall housed in the Piedmont Commons. Once inside they have a meat & 3 bar, a sandwich/burger bar, a fruit bar, a salad bar, a pizza bar, a drink bar, and a full dessert bar. It's the perfect place for mixed groups with wide-ranging appetites. The food is prepared in small lots, so it's easily the equal of any $12/plate restaurant. The dining area is spacious and clean. Cash or credit cards accepted. Lunch items may run out after 12 noon. No cell service in the dining area. Parking can be an issue during peek times.

Enjoyed lunch for orientation! There is a variety of foods and all were delicious. I had steak and some pizza with fries and potatoes. I also had dessert which included pecan pie and a cookie. I look forward to attending Piedmont and eating lunch! The cafeteria is set up nicely and roomy too.

Excellent facility for students to study, exercise, and mingle. Excellent cafeteria with top shelf chefs and food service professionals. Great potential for weekend live events...live music, dances, improv, stand-up comedy, poetry readings...could be an piece of the NYC 'Village' in Demorest, GA.
