The Union Hideaway Coming Soon!

Explorers, we’ve been grinding away on renovations over the break to create your new go-to hangout: The Union Hideaway. But great things take time, and the space needs a little longer to percolate. In the meantime, you can still get your morning coffee fix at the Union Market, Founders Brew, and St. Benilde. When the Hideaway opens in spring 2025, we promise it’ll be nothing short of brew-tiful. Stay informed of any changes and offering on the Dining Services website.
