Whatever pleases your palate, you’re sure to find it at one of our many dining experiences on campus.
Enjoy Something New Every Day
Each dining venue offers a different menu within a unique atmosphere, from fine to fast, casual dining. Chefs prepare daily dishes, plan special events and pride themselves on satisfying a variety of tastes. Pair a wine or a beer with your entrée. Surround yourself with friends, find a quiet corner to relax or request take-out or delivery. No reservations needed!
With feedback residents provide, our chefs and nutritionists customize options to satisfy individual appetites. Menus focus on fresh, local and seasonal produce, including items from the Masonic Village Orchard, the Masonic Village Farm and other local farms (within 25 miles) or PA Preferred farms throughout Pennsylvania.
Sign up for special events, including al fresco dining, beer and wine pairings and themed meals for variety and excitement.
A flexible dining plan accommodates your individual lifestyle. There’s never a need to carry cash with your Masonic Village Personalized (MVP) card.
