Washington University Dining Services — Attraction in Clayton

Washington University Dining Services is one thing, but Bear’s Den is another. The level of quality, taste, and excellence that I found in the latter was unmatched — legendary, phenomenal, transcendent. I remember a chicken sandwich I ate in 2022… I can barely put it in words. A taste, unmatched, cooked for me in a level of service. Spiced, charred chicken; fluffy bun; crisp, melt-in-your-mouth lettuce. I dream about it sometimes. It’s Lacan’s objet petit a. There’s not much...

The summer after my freshman year, I legitimately found myself craving a Bear’s Den impossible cheeseburger with a fried egg and brioche bun. If freshman year was a song, WashU dining is the never ending melody—catchy, unforgettable, and the most memorable part. It is the twangy guitar lick, the tickling piano, the suave saxophone solo, the part of a song that you never forget. Each person at BD is a chord you play in the sonata that is your time at WashU. Thank you...

Bear’s Den is one of the better dining options within University. There are plenty of options for the entire family, even if the quality is inconsistent. The staff is mostly incredibly friendly, especially Dorothy (although she works in the market called Paws n Go). The outside atmosphere is quite lovely, so I’d recommend going at a Time where it’s not too snowy....
