let's go

This isn’t your typical farmer’s market. The Grove’s Original Farmer’s Market has stalls with any kind of food you could want, from Italian to Brazilian.

The Motley, just off Seal Court, is our student-run cafe. It’s one of the most popular places on campus; you can get great coffee and something to eat here.

If you want something cold and sweet for our warm and sunny days here, Bert & Rocky’s in the Claremont Village has over 200 delicious ice cream flavors.

Dining hall food often gets a bad rap, but at Scripps, that’s not the case. Most Scripps students eat at the Malott dining hall and love all the fresh options.

How’s the food? I would say, fantastic! I love our food.

The Little Tokyo neighborhood in LA is where you need to go if you’re looking for amazing ramen, mochi, sushi, and more.

It’s one of my favorite places to visit!

Union on Yale in the Claremont Village is a cool spot with a little bit of everything. Plus, they have outdoor seating (perfect on warm, sunny SoCal days).

I really like their avocado toast with egg.

Get your sweet tooth fix with the baked goods from Some Crust Bakery in the Claremont Village (it’s a student favorite). Bonus: they offer student discounts.

I love the iced sugar cookies.

It wouldn’t be SoCal without Disneyland, Universal Studios, and Six Flags—simply pick your favorite and spend a day there with your friends.

You can grab your homework or a book and hang out at the Getty Museum and its beautiful grounds for the day (after viewing the art, of course).

The Getty Museum is free!

It’s a straight shot on the Metro from campus to El Pueblo, the birthplace of LA. You can tour the historic sites and visit the Mexican Marketplace.

It’s a lively exhibition of LA history.
