Bruce operates two self-serve salad bars in front of the Main and Mediterranean Lines.

The bar closer to the Mediterranean Line rotates choices every day from tofu to beans to plantains. It turns into a phở bar every Wednesday evening with chicken, beef, lobster, and other flavor stocks, one of Bruce's redeeming features.

Bruce Hall


Type Dining Hall
Distance from McConnell 1 minute
Known for Bruce Pizza

Bruce Hall is a residential hall at UNT which has a dining hall within it. It is very close to McConnell Hall and is a convenient place for TAMS students to eat meals. The food is widely regarded as the worst out of the dining halls. Hosts events like Star Wars Dinner, Harry Potter Dinner (Christmas), birthday celebrations (every Wednesday), and Haunted Houses (Halloween).

Breakfast[edit | edit source]

Grains/Carbs[edit | edit source]

  • Cereal
  • Waffles, along with a waffle bar (whipped cream, fruits, syrup)
  • French Toast
    • Alright, but they taste weirdly sour.
  • Pancakes
  • Oatmeal
  • Potatoes
  • Donuts
    • DONUT TUESDAYYYYYY (only in the morning tho)

Protein[edit | edit source]

  • Eggs
    • Boiled - it's hard to ruin a boiled egg.
    • Fried - not bad, but quite oily.
    • Scrambled - powdered; not real eggs.
  • Sliced sausages

Fruits[edit | edit source]

  • Kinda self-explanatory, unless you're asking about the quality of fruit that Bruce serves. If that's the case, go to Maple.

Main Line[edit | edit source]

  • Famous for its inexplicably charred and dry yet sometimes undercooked Rotisserie Chicken.
    • Maybe I'm being too mean to Bruce. Sometimes the chicken is decent, but it doesn't change the fact that it is dry as the Sahara Desert. Great for gettin dem gainz.
  • A combination of vegetables and meat (both of which are mediocre for a lot of people, but I'll leave that up to you to decide)

Salad Bars[edit | edit source]

Bruce operates two self-serve salad bars in front of the Main and Mediterranean Lines. They are usually closed for breakfast, though pancakes are served once a week and occasionally various berries show up. There are a variety of vegetarian foods for lunch and dinner. The bar closer to the Main Line typically contains the same foodstuffs day to day such as salad, olives, and cheese. The bar closer to the Mediterranean Line rotates choices every day from tofu to beans to plantains.

Pizza Line[edit | edit source]

  • The pizza tastes alright, but the slices are incredibly thin and oily.
  • For some reason, they also serve pasta and vegetables in this line.

Types of pasta[edit | edit source]

  • Shape of pasta
    • Bruce (yeah idk either), Macaroni, Fusilli
  • Saucy mamas
    • Bruce (again, idk), Alfredo, Marinara

Types of vegetables[edit | edit source]

  • Green beans
  • Carrots
  • Cabbage

Types of pizza[edit | edit source]

Cheese, Pepperoni, Vegetable, Stromboli. Margarita, Buffalo Chicken

Ways to eat[edit | edit source]

  • Crust first to add some more spunk to your life
  • Switch it up and eat it cheese down
  • Roll it up and dab on dem haters
  • Take a napkin and blot out the Oil so that the US Government won't exploit your pizza like they did to Saudi Arabia
  • Normally, as a boring person would

Beverages[edit | edit source]

The following beverages are available during all operating hours of the dining hall, unless it runs out (from personal experience, coffee and milk often do).

  • Water
  • Ice (crushed, not cubed)
  • Coffee
  • Milk (whole, reduced fat 2%, soy, and chocolate)
  • Tea
  • Orange juice, Cranberry juice, Apple juice
  • Soda
    • I'm not gonna list all of them because that takes effort :(

Events[edit | edit source]

Every Friday of October, Bruce serves Hispanic food for Hispanic heritage month. They also decorated the entire place with flags and banners. For Halloween the cafeteria was decorated for the month and they served Halloween-themed food on Halloween.
