The Marketplace

With new management focusing on positive, outrageous service and diverse menu selections, the East Campus Marketplace offers the best dining experience around.

At the heart of Duke’s East Campus, The Marketplace is located directly across the quad from Lilly Library inside a classic example of Georgian architecture, the East Campus Union Building. Inside, you’ll find a modern dining facility, elegantly styled to serve the Duke community. The Marketplace’s menu emphasizes fresh ingredients, seasonal vegetables, and variety, offering its customers the pick of the season. Stations include homestyle favorites, grill items, a full salad bar, pasta, pizza, a deli, and a world station with rotating entrees from around the globe. There is also a belgian waffle station, a full variety of breakfast cereals, and homemade breads, soups, and desserts.
