What a god-awful mess. When I checked out the website for this place, I laughed because that must have been the only time Jo’s has ever been that clean. Seriously, once I came here and there was trash everywhere. The only place that didn’t have trash in it was the trash can. I don’t understand how Brown students fight for free-trade goods but can’t recycle or throw away their trash. It is as if they expect someone to clear the tables for them; this simply doesn’t exist. There are food stations here where you can order fast food or a sandwich. I feel bad for the employees here, because the students mistreat them. Aside from being downright rude, the drunk students who stumble in degrade the employees verbally(either to their face, or more often the coward’s way). In addition to the rough environment that this campus eatery fosters, this place is tough on value. I would not recommend using real money at this place ever. Why? Because something that should cost 2.99 will be priced at 3.99 or up. Brown students get shafted because the most common way of payment is using their dining swipe. A dining swipe is worth 5.55, and considering that most of the drinks here are $ 2, not much of a swipe is left for a filling(or nutritious) meal. It would probably be best to go to the dining hall. If not for a more satisfying eat, then to avoid all the ugliness that Jo’s seems to attract.
