Food and Drink: People's Place

Every graduate student's best friend, cheap coffee.

Founded in 1971, People's Place is a student-run non-profit coffeeshop located in the basement of Hendricks Chapel on the Syracuse University quad. It is only a small nook set into the wall, but it fills the entire hallway with commotion during class breaks. Only a short walk off the ESF campus, People's Place offers not just coffee, but also tea, juices, bagels, donuts, soup, and sandwiches.

For ESF students tend to carry around their reusable school-branded mugs. If you are so inclined, People's Place offers a 10-cent discount for those that bring their own container. When most drinks are between 50 cents and $1.00, this amounts to a generous environmentally friendly discount.
