HUDS Updates Saturday Breakfast Service

Responding to student feedback, Harvard University Dining Services will now serve a heartier breakfast on Saturday mornings before brunch, according to an email announcement sent out on Thursday.

With this change, Annenberg Hall and all House dining halls will serve what HUDS terms “House-Style” breakfast—items like hard boiled eggs, hot steel-cut oatmeal, and make-your-own waffles—on Saturdays from 7:30 a.m. to 10:00 a.m. followed by brunch at 11:30 a.m. Previously, all dining halls except for Kirkland served a lighter continental breakfast before brunch on Saturdays.

According to HUDS, the changes were a compromise between students “who expressed a strong preference for Saturday brunch” and “early risers who need a heartier menu than the weekend continental breakfast.”

This adjustment comes just weeks after HUDS introduced major changes to its service and menus, adding new grill items, Saturday brunch, and opening the dining halls between meal times.

This change is effective immediately, starting this Saturday.

Sunday breakfast service will remained unchanged, with continental breakfast available before brunch in Annenberg and all the Houses except for Kirkland, which will continue to serve House-style breakfast.
