Food Service

MIAD Café
MIAD’s café is operated by American Dining Creations. For up-to-date hours, please visit the Café website. Contact them at adc@miad.edu for catering or other questions.. The MIAD meal plan includes 12 meals per week. The meal plan is billed per semester and includes a $100 declining balance for additional meals or other items.
To view the meal plan cost and other information, visit MIAD’s Cost of Attendance page.
Students may purchase meal plan funds in advance for the MIAD Café. This eliminates the need to worry about bringing a lunch or carrying credit or debit cards. Funds can be used for purchases in the Café only. A continuing balance is maintained in the food service database, and students can find out from the cashier at any time how much is remaining on the card. Debit and credit cards are also accepted.
Students living in MIAD Housing are automatically enrolled in a MIAD Café Meal plan and can increase their declining balance if needed throughout the semester. Funds remaining on the meal card at the end of the fall semester are carried over to the spring semester. However, funds remaining at the end of the spring semester are forfeited.
MIAD’s café is operated by American Dining Creations. Contact adc@miad.edu with questions.
