The crepe place has moved upstairs. I remember when it was in the original place. I cant speak for other menus, but the quality has decreased. The crepe is too thick and too doughy. Its trying to stuff SO much, because of the price or complaints of not enough contents? Crepes are meant to be simple and easy, but when the veggies and meat are pushing out like a muffin top with dripping sauce, its a shame to call this a crepe.

Go in! They have a food court with a new place called beefsteak. But the gem is the crepe place! It is absolute magic, super fast service and delicious sweet and savory crepes. While ur there look at the board or facebook, Houston Hall always has guest speakers! Just saw Marc Lamont Hill and Shaun King for free!

Good on campus place to get a bit to eat. The cafe in the basement offers a good build your own sald option and pasta option which I usually go for. The creperie on the first floor also has quite good savory crepes

The food ranges from decent to good quality, and the staff is very nice. The prices are unjustifiable, however, and you should only come here if you have a dining plan or are buying a chicken teriyaki bowl

Houston has some great study spaces. The creperie is pretty good. There is no reason to eat at the market, however, unless you are on a dining plan. The food and service is poor and overpriced.

Though a bit pricey, there were a lot of food options for UPenn students. They did run out of forks when I went with some friends as it tends to get pretty crowded during lunch time.

Inside the building at the second floor there is a Masjid. Follow labels for SPARC. This is the chaplains office. One room is dedicated to Muslims for salah.

Love the Catering Staff. Food is excellent every time. I particularly love the large selection of ingredients (options) you can build your own salad upon.

Oldest student union building in the country. Try Pari Cafe Creperie and Insomnia Cookies while there.

The sushi here is amazing, everyone should try the spicy tuna, it is really good.

Theres a good amount of food here, but the crêpes are the killer item here.

The building kinda smells funny downstairs, and is a little sticky / dirty

Good food but a bit overpriced, and a good study spot but a bit crowded.
