The Refectory is found on the ground floor of the Quadrangle. The handmade brick-lined walls (made and fired at Saint John’s in the late 1800s) create a relaxed and inviting atmosphere in this dining room. The Refectory offers buffet-style, all-you-care-to-eat meals daily, including entrees and complementary side dishes, a soup and salad bar, desserts and fresh fruit, many beverage options, and the famous Saint John’s bread.
