Sick of the Bostwick Marketplace Cafeteria or the Bison? Want a way to spice up your Friday evening dining plans? Look no further than Downtown Lewisburg!
Recently, some quality eateries have been added to Lewisburg’s restaurant roster. These include: Siam Cafe, Sushi Hanna and Bella’s Bliss Bakery. Also, a fourth dining option will soon join this exciting trifecta: Mercado Burrito will open soon in the much-missed Market Street Deli storefront.
Food trucks are also springing up on Market Street and on our very own campus. The addition of the Flying Bison food truck to the University last semester has given students a quick way to get tasty and quality foods (think spring rolls and turkey pretzel sandwiches) right outside of the engineering buildings on weekdays or Vedder Hall on weekend evenings. Downtown, a Thai food truck has made weekly appearances to offer students and town members food with international flair right in the heart of Pennsylvania.
With all of these new dining options on and around campus, Lewisburg is starting to feel as metropolitan as ever. Seemingly, our little “bubble” is bursting with not only national and international food phenomena, but tons of flavor, too!
