BibimBox

BibimBox gives a weekday lunch at MIT a Korean accent. The family-run business serves Korean and Asian food from the Commonwealth Kitchen Launchpad on the second floor of the Stratton Student Center, with bibimbap rice bowls at the heart of its offering. Head inside the building at 84 Massachusetts Avenue; this is a food-court counter, so it can be easy to miss from the street.

The counter serves lunch Monday through Friday and closes in the afternoon. You can pay with cash or a credit card, as well as MIT dining payment options. The Student Center has daytime public access, but check MIT’s dining notices around holidays and academic breaks before making a special trip.
