Starship Food Delivery

Robots bring your favorite foods to you

Jacks dining is proud to deliver with Starship Food Delivery Robots! We welcomed our six-wheeled friends in November of 2021 and they have happily served from your favorite campus restaurants ever since!
Starship Delivery Robots https://www.starship.xyz/ are a safe, low-cost, and convenient way to satisfy your hunger without leaving your dorm, study spot, or campus hangout. They use less energy per delivery than it takes to brew one cup of hot coffee, are entirely powered by electricity, and the best part… they drive themselves!
Whether you’re restocking your dorm room fridge or treating yourself to a delicious dinner, Starship makes it easy to satisfy your cravings. Your meal plan can be connected in the app, allowing you to order and pay with Hobo Dough. The robots currently deliver from Slices, Erbert & Gerbert's, and Shorty's Hot Box.
