Worth a Visit
“I'm glad McAlister's exists on campus. This is your one stop deli where you can grub on sandwiches, soups and salads.”

Sara's full firsthand review

I'm glad McAlister's exists on campus. This is your one stop deli where you can grub on sandwiches, soups and salads. Ive had their vegetarian bean chili, which was decent. Its nice and filling, which gets the job done when you have an empty belly on campus. Ive also had their creamy mac and cheese, which was nice and comforting. They also have these huge overstuffed baked potatoes that I want to try next time. McAlisters also has a variety of desserts that I have not tried yet. Their enormous cookies look good, and so does their cheesecake. I think I have my eye on them and will try the sweets next time I visit this deli..

What we tried

Sara tried cookies, cheesecake. Some parts worked well, while others kept the visit from feeling like a standout experience.

The experience

The visit felt generally positive.

Who might enjoy it?
