Risley Dining is Cornell Dining's best kept secret. Located by the Thurston Ave. bridge and across from Balch Hall, we offer the all-Ivy "Risley Great Hall " that has been completely refurbished back to its original finish, which dates back to 1913.

We offer a completely remodeled servery featuring pizza, pasta, hot traditional entrees, deli express, create you own stir fry, create your own soup station, as well as a new breakfast & fruit bar, and a newly expanded beverage station.

Here at Risley we love to meet the needs and tastes of all ethnic groups. We are known for our small family-type atmosphere-we pick up where mom and dad left off . Let us make you feel at home and we will meet all your dining needs.

We'll even try the recipes you bring us from home. And don't be surprised if we even name a dish after you--like " Brian's No Mushrooms Beef Tips", "Kelsey's Key Lime Pie ", "Matt's Beef Brisket", etc.

We also offer Italian, Asian, Greek, Southwestern, and American cuisine, and do many mini specials during the semester. Please feel free to make the short walk up, down, or across campus and let us treat you to our specialties.
