re: Anyone who's been to Auburn, how was it?

Hey Tiger fans!

I think this is the best year to visit Auburn. Auburn has a number of dining options near campus but there are some new noteworthy options near campus which should be great for visitors:

The new food hall across campus (between AU hotel and the new hotel) will offer lots of dining options including Burgers, Pizza, Tacos, Cuban Sandwiches, Poke, Asian street food, Italian Ice cream, etc. It will be open to the public for lunch and dinner (including weekends) starting next week.

The new downtown Publix supermarket will open in a few weeks and is located next to campus (currently there is only a CVS near campus).

There is also some additional new dining options near campus incl Whataburger, new coffee shops, etc…and the new downtown Target will likely open next semester. Currently, two additional downtown hotels are u/c (Marriott, Graduate Hotels) which should be interesting for future visits.

I hope this helps.
