A campus: It's not far from the university campus around the central canteen to the university campus and the facilities there, such as Café K3. Perhaps you would like to enjoy your coffee in a different atmosphere?
All our canteens and cafeterias on campus serve the most important drink of everyday university life: daily coffee. Whether for breakfast or in between meals, you can also find tea, sandwiches, cakes, drinks, fruit and snacks in addition to coffee

Impressions from the Canteen Rewi



In addition to the great lounge atmosphere of Mensa Rewi, a great special feature is that the seating areas are freely accessible throughout the opening hours of the ReWi building. This makes it a great place to sit down with friends and enjoy a coffee from the vending machine in the basement when Mensa Rewi is already closed. You are welcome to enjoy the atmosphere of the seating areas, even when we are no longer there.
Every Wednesday from 6-8 p.m., the Studierendenwerk Mainz language café also takes place here. With 60 to 100 participants, there is always a lot going on here.
Cofffebar and Snacks at Philo
Fresh, fair and sustainable and catering for all tastes
The insgrüne opens its doors shortly before midday and is open for guests until the early evening.
The insgrüne serves a coffee speciality that is unique on campus. Only here are the beans from the Mainz coffee manufactory used for the coffee . When roasting the coffee beans, the local Mainz-based company favours gentle craftsmanship over fast, industrial processing. The coffee itself mostly comes from small farmers who are paid fairly in long-term co-operations and supported in the development of better health and education care locally. The coffee on offer ranges from café crème to cappuccino and latte.
Tea and cocoa are of course also available, as well as chilled drinks in bottles to take away.
A small hot lunch: Hot dogs, stew, chilli con carne or goulash soup are available from the hot bar. The paninis are freshly prepared for you.
Sandwiches, sweet coffee, fruit and cake are always available.
So why cook when I can eat here just as well? You can also take away. Or you may save food from 17:15-17:30 warm food is half price.
The insgrüne is intended to be a place to recharge your batteries and take a deep breath, inviting you to linger with its modern and cosy furnishings. The outdoor terrace in Philo's inner courtyard is designed to allow guests to take a break in the open air. Here they can soak up the sun in the greenery and enjoy snacks and drinks before heading back to university or home.
