# Where to eat on campus on Sundays at UT Austin

J2 and Kins open for Sunday breakfast at 9 a.m. in UT’s regular fall schedule, then close from 2 to 4:30 p.m. Use a market or coffee shop during that gap. Jesta’ Pizza opens at 5 p.m.

- [Jester City Market · noon to midnight](https://housing.utexas.edu/dining/hours-of-operation) The Jester market opens before the afternoon break and stays open after J2 closes.
- [Jesta’ Pizza · 5 p.m. to midnight](https://housing.utexas.edu/dining/dining-locations/restaurants/jesta-pizza) The Jester counter starts 30 minutes after J2’s regular dinner window opens. Choose it if you want pizza or miss the dining hall.

J2 and Kins shut for 2½ hours between breakfast or lunch and dinner. Jester City Limits is closed on Sunday. Check the date-specific schedule if you are relying on a late dinner.
