Coral Gables campus
With plenty of options in the Hurricane Food Court, there’s something for every diet and craving but the retail options are not limited to the heart of campus, as you’ll see on this handy map of the Gables campus.

Based out of the Gables One Tower? Take a nice walk to a nearby retail dining spot off US1.
