Zanzibar Cafe At the Loft

My favorite place on campus, their happy hour can't be beat!

You can’t serve rotten beef patty to students. It is sour and tastes odd. So I dumped it in trash and walked away. I feel disgusted the fact that the meat is precooked before days ago. Obviously the patty preheat in microwave. 🤮worst part, it is just sour and odd tasting. Come on you can’t do this. You can’t do this to cause food poisoning to stressed students

Small but good selection of beer and wine. Good food. Great place for music.

Food is always pretty good and the waits are usually pretty quick both to order and to receive food. It would be nice if there was a bit more normal table seating for larger groups though. The outside area is pretty nice, but can be high traffic depending on the students, also there aren't always umbrellas for shade.

A really nice place to go that feels like it's off campus even though it is not. It's cozy, the menu is nice, and it's a bit removed from the bustle downstairs. Not the cheapest, but perhaps the best place to grab lunch on campus if you want to treat yourself a bit.

Ordered the vegan burger and none of the toppings it's supposed to come with were on it. It was flavorless and incredibly disappointing, especially for $10. I couldn't even force myself to finish it.

A relaxed campus venue with varied and creative menu, friendly staff, afternoon bar bites discounts, and a well-curated array of craft beer taps. And a chill soundtrack of tunes on the PA.

Zanzibar is a chill above average (for price center) restaraunt. Decent selection if you are not concerned with your health and you eat meat. There is plenty of seating that can accommodate groups of 5 or more. It's an ideal location to host a lab lunch or host some visiting academics. The Zanzibar combo ( soup, sandwich and side ) is the most well rounded option. The staff here are the coolest in PC.
