Plans to open a Little Caesars at WSU are part of an accelerated expansion of restaurants designed to meet the demand for flexible options and the growing preference for convenient dining.

Little Caesars has partnered with Washington State University’s Dining Services to open a serving location in the Compton Union Building (CUB) food court in the spring. A grand opening date will be announced later as the space it will occupy may need renovations.

“We are very excited to bring a nationally recognized pizza brand to the food court and believe it will be very popular with our students,” said Karee Shaw, director of the CUB. “It will complement the other concepts we have in the food court and offer variety to the campus community.”

Core to the mission of Student Affairs, students helped select Little Caesars. The CUB Student Advisory Board weighed in on the selection of the new vendor and WSU students were involved in menu taste tests to help make the final decisions.

At WSU, the food concept will be managed by WSU Dining Services, which also runs Freshëns and Carlitas in the CUB.

“We are thrilled to bring Little Caesars to the Washington State University campus, offering students, faculty, and staff a convenient, affordable, and delicious meal option,” said Patrick Cunningham, vice president of U.S. Development at Little Caesars. “As we continue to expand our footprint across the country, it’s exciting to be part of the vibrant campus life at WSU and serve the Coug community with our iconic Hot-N-Ready® pizzas and exceptional guest service.”
