The West Way Café has transformed. The diner isn’t open yet, but it’s not clear what we should expect. The only culinary feature of note in Manchester, England, is its Curry Mile, but this Manchester’s decor doesn’t hint at any South Asian flavors… One could also entertain hopes of a budget-friendly eatery, given that Manchester, […]

The summer has been anything but dull in Morningside Heights. Perhaps the biggest news of all was the closing of H&H bagels, just downriver at 80th St. H&H was frequently cited as the top rival to our clearly superior Absolute for the best bagels on the Upper West Side, if not the entire city. Perhaps […]

It’s actually Wednesday afternoon! Which now means that it’s Pizza Wednesday. That’s right, Boringside enthusiasts—Nussbaum’s deal formerly known as “Pizza Sunday/Monday” has become an everyday offer. Morningside heaves a collective sigh of contentment and not-as-broke-ment; weight gains ensue. Aaaand speaking of eating, a tipster reports seeing a “hilarious number” of graduates, still swathed in gowns, […]

The real world has no finals. (Unless you count taxes.) Here’s what’s happened around you while you were cooped up in the library:

We’ve reached an interesting point in the spring semester—the two-week lull before all hell breaks loose during finals. Though things may be moving a bit slower, no event is too boring for Boringside! Plus, when else would we get to post gratuitous links like this one?

So many things have happened this week that it’s almost too much for us to process. There are changes everywhere, new things abound—all this excitement might be dangerous for Bwog’s heart health! Though we may have had a little fun with yesterday’s posts, we promise that today’s edition of Boringside Heights is totally legit. Feast […]

In celebration of the recently announced Bacchanal artists— I’m in the Combination St. John the Divine’s and Pizza Hut.

Have any major changes come to our little neck of Boringside Heights? Sort of. It seems that Dining knows how hard it is to hold a cup of coffee or tea while rushing to class (or sneaking drinks into Butler). This convenient Starbucks-style latte lid was spotted in John Jay by a perceptive and caffeine-addicted […]

Things happen in Morningside Heights, even when you’re busy gettin’ your tan on in Punta Cana or frolicking through Canada! Quite a few changes have come to these Boringside Heights. Could it be that our humble little neighborhood may no longer be—dare we say it—boring?!   In more cash storage news, the Hartley Hospitality Desk […]

Looks like Milano is getting a facelift. The Milano men tell us they’re reconfiguring the doors, following their recent counter makeover. Give us two doors again, please! Update: Looks like they’re getting two doors! Someone we spoke to at Milano said the construction should be done by today. Expect two doors on the right side […]

Just when we thought this place couldn’t get any more boring, all sorts of new minutiae decided to crop up! Spring is here-ish, new chairs abound, and Boringside Heights is serving up ice cream like it’s goin’ out of style. Midterms be damned—it’s a good time to be at Columbia. It’s been reported that Hewitt […]

Burgers, cookies, and salads—oh my! Few things are more important in the life of a Columbia student than eating a good meal. It’s an exciting week in the Columbia culinary world. Boringside Heights—all minutia, all the time.

Columbia students have seen their fair share of preposterous posters. Here a few new ones that either made us laugh, cry, or just shake our heads. Oh, the minuteness of it all…
