Dining Services welcomes five new restaurants to our program this fall and new menu items at on-campus dining locations!
De Fer Coffee and Tea Co.
De Fer Coffee & Tea will join Carnegie Mellon University Dining Services at the Maggie Murph Café in Hunt Library this fall.
De Fer Coffee & Tea was founded in 2016 by CMU alumnus Matt Marietti, who earned his MBA from the Tepper School in 2010, and his wife, Vanessa. They have since grown to six cafes, including their flagship location in Pittsburgh’s historic Strip District, where they roast all of their coffee in-house daily. Operating the café in Hunt library holds special meaning for Marietti, who spent countless hours drinking coffee, studying and preparing for a career that would ultimately lead him back to Carnegie Mellon University. De Fer offers an eclectic menu of specialty coffee, house-made tea blends, paninis, chia pudding and delicious baked oatmeal.
Join us on Friday, September 30, from 1 p.m. - 2:30 p.m. for a grand opening celebration in Hunt Library.
