One of the most common discussions
here on campus is which caf is better, Brody Square ?
Or the Snyder/Phillips Gallery? I thought it’s about time to settle the great debate
with a cafeteria showdown!
Brody |
SnyPhy |
We’ll do this with a section for section comparison before awarding
the overall winner.
Brimstone Grille (Brody and Sny/Phy)
Both cafs can claim they offer the delicious made to order
burgers, chicken sandwiches, fries, and hot dogs. However Brody offers a wider
variety with grilled cheese, spicy chicken, and even popcorn chicken from time
to time.
Advantage Brody
Ciao!(Brody and Sny/Phy)
Again both cafs offer equally delicious choices of Pizza
with rotating toppings. I want to note here that my favorite is the Big Mac
Pizza I experienced at Brody. If you haven’t tried it yet, you are missing out.
Moreover both sandwich bars have endless combinations of fresh ingredients.
New Traditions vs Homestyle
Both these sections offer great options for traditional
American home style food from rotisserie chicken to mashed potatoes. However,
New Traditions gets the slight nod for the rotating menu offering more options.
Advantage Sny/Phy
Bliss vs Dolce
If desserts are more your thing you won’t be lacking in
either caf, whether it be cookies, cake, or ice cream. Dolce gets the nod for
the irresistible milkshakes.
Advantage Brody
The Berg vs S2 and Veg Out
Both cafs offer fresh salad and soup options. In this case
Brody earns the nod with more vegetarian options, sushi, and smoothies.
Advantage Brody
Latitudes vs Pangea, Boiling Point, and Cayenne ’s
This category is a runaway train in favor of Brody.
Latitudes offers a solid variety of options. However it simply cannot compete
with Boiling Point’s make-your own pasta, and Cayenne ’s
quesadillas, burritos, and nachos. Moreover, my favorite station on all of
campus, Pangea, offers fantastic stir-fry with dozens of options.
Advantage Brody
Overall Atmosphere
Both cafs provide very nice settings for a relaxing meal.
Unfortunately sometimes Sny/Phy is overcrowded to the point that I have had to
wait for a table to open up for a few minutes. Brody on the other hand, somehow
always seems to have an open table. Moreover Brody’s different sections allow
for a more private dining experience as opposed to the high school open
cafeteria feel of Sny/Phy. Finally and perhaps most importantly, Sny/Phy has no
TV’s. How am I supposed to watch Sportscenter with my breakfast!
Advantage Brody
The results are in:
Brody: 6
Sny/Phy: 2
Summary
Both cafs offer tremendous dining experiences with loads of
delicious options to suit your appetite. However, as we have found, Brody
consistently has more and better options across the board, while offering a
stronger overall setting for my daily meals.
