JP's Diner
Sacred Heart University's newest dining hall, JP's Diner, is a '50s-style diner and the first on-campus diner in all of New England. Named for SHU President John J. Petillo, JP’s is located on SHU's newly-constructed Upper Quad, between the William H. Pitt Center and Pioneer Park.
The ’50s- and ’60s-themed diner offers a variety of food options for students in a fun, unique setting. JP’s serves breakfast, lunch and dinner. The menu contains about 25 to 30 classic diner items including burgers, patty melts and club sandwiches. Dessert options include delicious pies, ice cream, cheesecake and, of course, milkshakes, a diner staple. JP's uses dining dollars, offers a take-out menu, and stays open until 3 a.m. on weekends.
The eatery features a big screen tv to showcase vintage black and white movies. The diner seats approximately 110 people inside and 40 people outside.
