Is it worth the walk to Stav Hall? CafCast helps you find out. During every meal, students rate what they're eating, and each dish shows up as worth it, fine, or one to skip. The board updates as votes come in, so you know what's good before you get in line. • See what Stav is serving at every meal, even before it opens. • Open the app and see how every dish is doing, no vote needed. • Loved it, Fine, or Nope. One tap, plus a vibe if you want. • See the top dishes and how everyone voted on each one. • Keep a streak: rate a dish each day Stav is open and watch your calendar fill in. • Between meals, browse the next menu by station and see what people liked last time. • Get a notification when each meal opens, and a heads-up when a dish you loved is back. There's no sign-up and no account to make. You can only vote while a meal is being served, so every rating comes from someone who's actually eating it. You can delete your data any time from the info button. CafCast is an independent student app. It is not affiliated with or endorsed by St. Olaf College or Bon Appétit Management Company. Menus and hours come from Bon Appétit's public Stav Hall menu.
