Dining On Campus
No matter where you are at Duke, there's someplace you can go to find what you’re looking for when the craving hits you. Duke features more than 30 eateries, from home-style comfort foods, pasta and bagels to hot wraps and long salad bars. Time doesn't have to be a factor, either. Many of our campus eateries open at 7 a.m. and go to the early hours of the morning to cater to any night owls who need a meal or a snack.
Whether you're Duke staff, faculty or a student, there are plenty of places for you to choose from to satisfy your hunger with healthy options.
