The newly constructed Lakeside Dining Hall also houses the Lakeside Diner and Lakeside Market. Both are convenient to all students on the north side of campus, and offer a place to get a quick bite to eat. However, the Lakeside Market is notorious for ripping off its customers. Items are often offered at 200% their cost at the nearest grocery store (Publix). (I personally compared prices between three items: a loaf of white bread, a can of ravioli, and a roll of paper towels.)
For shoppers on a budget (i.e. college students), it would be wiser to make weekly trips to Publix or Wal-Mart to stock up on groceries, rather than rely on the convenient, yet costly, Lakeside Market.
