Bear On The Run
Bear On The Run is our "hot" to-go option available during all meals in the University Center Dining Room or Holmes Dining Hall. Use one of our green reusable containers, and you can take your favorites with you!
How Bear On The Run works:
- If this is your first time getting Bear On The Run, you’ll need to purchase a $5 green reusable container from Holmes Dining Hall or UC Dining Room at the cashier’s stand.
- You’ll only pay the $5 once, unless you lose the container, then you will need to
purchase it again. Containers can be purchased using Dining Dollars or cash. Bring
your Bear On The Run box into Holmes Dining Hall or UC Dining Room each time you want to choose a Bear On The Run.
You’ll pay for your Bear On The Run meal using your meal plan with your UNC Card. - Then you use your green container to choose 2 entrees and unlimited sides from the dining room. Make sure your container closes completely. You’ll also receive a biodegradable cup that can hold either hot or cold items such as soup or a beverage. Disposable utensils, cup lids/sleeves, and napkins are available at each location.
- Take your Bear On the Run and enjoy your meal!
Each time you use Bear On The Run, bring your reusable green container back with you, and trade if for a clean one. (If you can, it’s always good to wipe out your container once you’ve used it.) If you bring your container with you and decide you want to stay and eat in the dining room, we’ll give you a carabineer instead of a container. Then, when you want Bear On The Run again, trade the carabineer for a new green container.
