Food Allergy, Intolerance and Medical Dietary Needs

We want to meet one-on-one with anyone who has special dietary needs to ensure your dining experience is safe, satisfying, and social. Email to arrange a time to talk.

We encourage those with medical dietary restrictions to contact accessibility services to document needs for housing and/or dining accommodations. studentaccessibilityservices@tarleton.edu

Dining Menus and Allergen Labeling

Our menus provide “contains” statements specifically highlighting the Major Nine allergens defined by the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (milk, eggs, shellfish, fish, tree nuts, peanuts, wheat, soy, sesame) and gluten. You may check for the presence of allergen-containing ingredients prior to planning meals using the online menu tool. The information is also posted on menu boards in the Dining Hall.

Menu items are prepared using standardized recipes and food preparation procedures; however, there may be a risk of cross-contact on shared surfaces and equipment. Please communicate your food allergy concerns and dietary needs to the dining services manager to ensure safety.
