There may be less activity on campus over the summer, but there are still plenty of places on campus to get food and coffee on weekdays, including several platforms at the Coffee House and locations operated by Dining Services.
Weekend food and coffee service on campus is limited over the summer.
Coffee House and CoHo South
The Coffee House and CoHo South are both open Monday-Friday, offering coffee, bagels, pizza, sushi, sandwiches and more.

Shields Library’s hours vary by week, and are posted online. The library’s 24-Hour Study Room is open during the summer.
Transportation Services, Unitrans
Over the summer, paid parking permits will still be required on all weekdays. Transportation Services’ motorist assistance continues to be available to help those who are locked out of their vehicles, or who need a jump start or a tire inflated. Motorist assistance can be reached at 530-754-3687 weekdays from 7:15 a.m.- 5:45 p.m.
Unitrans is operating on its summer schedule, and is preparing for fare and service changes that go into effect Aug. 5. The cash fare to ride Unitrans will increase a quarter to $1.50. Other passes will be priced as follows:
- 10-ride ticket: $8.50 (was $7.50)
- Monthly pass: $34 (was $30)
- Quarterly pass: $87 (was $77)
- Annual pass: $245 (was $216)
The fare increase, passed by the Unitrans Advisory Committee and the Davis City Council earlier this year, includes additional price increases for the multi-ride passes that will take effect in 2025.
This fall, Unitrans will add new departures to the A, K and M lines, and will add a stop to the O line at Pole Line Road southbound near the Cambridge House Apartments.
Starting Sept. 28, it will provide a fare-free Farmers Market Shuttle on Saturday mornings. The route will have a vintage double-decker bus traveling between the Memorial Union Terminal and Downtown Davis every 30 minutes between 9 a.m. and noon. The route is a pilot program, and will be evaluated next June, Unitrans says.
