The Courtyard Café

The Courtyard Café is conveniently located on the lower level of the Jackson Campus Center. Smell the aromas of freshly brewed organic ‘Peace Coffee’, Cappuccino, Latte, Espresso, and Herbal Chai paired with warm, oven fresh gourmet cookies and sweet rolls. The atmosphere is relaxed and comfortable, the conversations friendly and engaging. Step out on the patio of the John’s Family Courtyard and take in tranquility of the bubbling fountain and the beauty that is Gustavus.

Students may use their declining balance meal plan to purchase items in the Courtyard Café, or may use cash, credit card or check.

Open 7:30 am to 3 pm Monday through Friday and 6 pm to 9 pm Sunday through Thursday.
