Lacy’s Fresh Fare and Catering

Lacy's logoLocated in the heart of Justin Hall, Lacy’s Fresh Fare and Catering is a unique, student-run dining experience operated by the Events and Hospitality Management program at Kansas State University.

Students enrolled in HM 351: Commercial Food Production Management oversee daily restaurant operations, while HM 465: Catering and Banquet Management students manage catering services. This hands-on approach enables students to apply classroom knowledge in a real-world setting, serving both the campus and the surrounding community.

Established in Spring 2018 through a generous donation from Cathy and Steve Lacy, Lacy’s has been a hub for affordable lunches, delicious treats, and community-focused events ever since.

If you're looking for a local dining experience, visit us in Hoffman Lounge, Justin Hall, and enjoy a meal prepared and served by our talented students. We’re proud to share our passion for hospitality with every guest.
