an undergraduate fine dining club
sixteen years (and counting)
Y Pop-Up is a bi-weekly pop-up dining experience fully run by Yale undergraduate students. Founded in 2009, we have strived for over a decade to deliver good food at reasonable prices in a restaurant-like environment. Menus are curated and cooked by student chefs auditioned through a Chopped-style audition process at the beginning of the year.
