If there is one thing that you can rely on Connecticut College for, it’s having food trucks at every event. Lucky for you, we’ve compiled a list of the most memorable and tasty businesses that frequent campus and some of our thought:
- Munchies
- Greekin Out
- Dudes Donuts
- Luigi’s Pizza
- Ice Cream Emergency (go inside truck)
- Milk Craft (big waffle cones with ice cream)
- Waffle Wagon (waffle with ice cream)
- Whisktopia (cupcakes, stuffed cookies)
- Cannoli Truck
- La Mesa
In order to encourage students to go to school events, sometimes Conn motivates us with food trucks, and we have been happy to see some of these local trucks return to our campus many times. Dudes Donuts is always a highlight of the autumn season with their warm apple cider and incredible apple cider donuts, and I really hope we get to see that one soon!
I’ve been a big fan of Munchies and Greekin Out and their heartier options such as the Munchies Spicy Chicken Sandwich and Greekin Out Gyro Fries. My friends and I are always satisfied by these meals when we get to enjoy them at Floralia, Block Parties, and other larger school events. And if students want a sweet treat from a truck, they’ll probably find that Whisktopia has lots of options. You can’t go wrong with any of their cupcakes, cakesicles, or stuffed cookies (and their gluten free options)!

I am a big fan of the Ice Cream Emergency food truck that Conn has had at some campus events. This is a bigger food truck, and you actually walk inside of the truck to order your ice cream sundae. They have a wide variety of flavors and tons of toppings for the sundae. Last time I got Moose Tracks ice cream with oreo pieces, sprinkles, hot fudge and whipped cream on top. As a big ice cream lover, this is my favorite food truck that comes to Conn!
