Welcome to Lawrence and the University of Kansas! Below is a selection of dining, coffee, and snack options for the Digital Humanities Forum. The descriptions are divided into Campus Options (for lunches and snacks) and Downtown Options (for when you are not on campus).

This list is by no means comprehensive. Additional information about dining options in Lawrence is available through the Lawrence Convention and Visitors Bureau (www.visitlawrence.com/dining), Lawrence.com (www.lawrence.com/restaurants/), and through user-generated sites like Yelp! (www.yelp.com) and UrbanSpoon (www.urbanspoon.com).
