Kosher Dining
- Harvard Hillel will feature lunch and dinner daily in a traditional all-you-care-to-eat dining hall experience.
- Students can select from hot entrees and sides, a salad bar, soups, dessert, and beverages Sunday to Friday. The menu will feature meat and parve options, except for Thursdays. On Thursdays, dinner will offer a dairy entrée, as well as a fish entree. Saturday service will feature cold selections at lunch and dinner.
- Service at Hillel will be overseen daily by a mashgiach.
- All community members, including professional school students, are welcome. Undergraduates, College affiliates, and students on The Commons meal plan (residents of GSAS housing) may use their meal plan to dine. Other community members can pay per meal.
- Additionally, Harvard College undergraduates can enjoy kosher lunch or dinner at two satellite locations.
- Dedicated stations at Annenberg Dining Hall and Pforzheimer House Dining Hall will offer hot entrees and sides Sunday to Friday, and cold selections on Saturdays. These menu items will be prepared at HUDS’ kosher production kitchen with mashgiach oversight, and then offered for self-service (without mashgiach oversight) with compostable wares.
- Undergraduate students and College affiliates who have a meal plan may dine at the noted spaces, subject to interhouse restrictions. Annenberg is restricted to first-year students, PAFs and College proctors at lunch and dinner; Pforzheimer House dining hall is available for any undergraduate or College affiliate with an undergraduate or College-sponsored meal plan.
- Harvard College undergraduates will also have access to continental breakfast and an array of staple items in Kosher Corners at every undergraduate dining hall.
- FlyBy (at Memorial Hall and SEC) will feature daily kosher sandwiches.

Halal Dining
Students keeping halal will find several options to support them:
- On HUDS’ online menu, you’ll see a daily halal entrée listed at both lunch and dinner.
-
- This entrée will be available at every dining hall – all you need to do, when you come in, is ask a manager to get it for you. You should anticipate a roughly 10 minute wait while we prepare this for you. You do not need to pre-order.
- Alternately, this entrée will also be available at a designated station, with no wait, at Annenberg Hall, Cabot House and Adams House
- In addition, on HUDS' online menu, we flag ingredients containing pork and alcohol (which, beyond obvious items such as chablis, includes vanilla). We do not identify items containing vinegar as containing alcohol.
- All items will be listed on the HUDS web menus to allow for additional ingredient or allergen searches.
- FlyBy (at Memorial Hall and SEC) will feature a daily halal protein sandwich or salad.
