Our Storefronts

Hoya Snaxa

Since Hoya Snaxa opened in the breezeway of the Southwest Quad in the fall of 2003, it has become a popular and convenient campus destination. Stocked with all the essentials of a corner store, Snaxa offers coffee, bagels, and muffins to get you started in the morning, slushies, Powerade, and PowerBars to get you through the day, and Booey’s sandwiches, pita wraps, and ready-to-eat frozen meals for a hearty lunch or dinner. Long study session tonight? Chips, candy, and sodas await. Snaxa also offers a full selection of toiletry and dorm life items when you’re in a pinch.
Dedicated to the Corp’s motto of “Students Serving Students”, Hoya Snaxa serves the students, faculty, and staff on the south side of campus.

Uncommon Grounds

Uncommon Grounds (UG) opened its doors to the Georgetown community in 1995, right across from the University bookstore in the Leavey Center. Whether you are looking for a traditional coffee, tasty latte, or soothing cup of tea, UG has you covered for both early morning and late night necessities. We also offer an assortment of bagels, muffins, croissants, and other pastries to help get you through the day.
Uncommon Grounds exhibits the allure and attitude of an independent coffeehouse. UG offers great music, including live performances from students, poetry readings, open-mic nights, and exhibitions of student artwork for a cozy and intimate coffee shop setting.

The Hilltoss Cafe

Originally a fresh idea sourced from our very own student body in 2012, The Hilltoss opened its doors to the public on November 14, 2014. Since its humble beginnings as one of many options on a student poll, The Hilltoss has been made possible through the enthusiasm and contributions of countless members of both the overall Georgetown community and The Corp.
Since 2016, The Hilltoss has included Grounded, the Corp’s newest coffee shop. Grounded sells coffee, tea, non-espresso based specialty drinks, breakfast toasts, and bagel sandwiches.
As a healthy dining option on the south-side of campus, this storefront will fill the gap between Lau and Leo’s offering fresh creations to keep students fueled up and feeling great.

The Midnight Mug

The Midnight Mug, The Corp’s largest coffee service, seeks to feed and caffeinate the denizens of Lauinger Library. We are a haven for all students and professors in need of a boost while trucking away in the library, whether at 8 am or 2 am. We feature a constantly evolving menu that includes seasonal specials to warm you up for the holidays or cool you down as summer approaches.
The Midnight MUG is open late every school night and even later during finals. We’ve been making Lau more enjoyable since 2003, so come take a break and see how Midnight can make your day a little brighter.

Vital Vittles

Opened in January 1973, Vital Vittles was the first storefront of the newly created Students of Georgetown, Inc. Originally a food co-op located in the lobby of New South, the store sold only yogurt and Coke.
Vital Vittles moved to its current location in the Leavey Center in August of 1988. It has since grown into a full-service grocery store, carrying everything from meat and produce to frozen foods and cereal.
Vittles also offers a wide selection of sandwiches, chips, and drinks for meals on the go and an ever-growing variety of vegetarian, vegan, and organic products. We are always looking to make the store better, so be on the look out for new arrivals that are right around the corner.

More Uncommon Grounds (MUG)

In the spring of 1999, The Corp opened More Uncommon Grounds (MUG) to serve the students, faculty, and staff who work, study, and socialize in the ICC Galleria. MUG provides the perfect morning jolt or afternoon pick-me-up. Serving bagels, muffins, and pastries along with coffee and espresso drinks, MUG satisfies a range of tastes for the peckish. MUG also offers a variety of cold sandwiches and salads for those looking for a heartier meal.
The perfect place to stop for a quick break or extended study session, MUG is there to provide you with efficient service and quality goods. Affectionately known as the "little cart with the big heart," MUG makes up for its small size with its deep appreciation for its customers, and our team is always looking for new ways to make each day a little bit better for the Georgetown community.
