For a college dining hall that’s also open to the public, this is an amazing place. Anyone who complains about the food here hasn’t had the “pleasure” of dining in a typical college cafeteria setting. This dining hall is centrally located next to the University Store. There’s another dining hall on East Campus where the freshman live and perhaps that’s a more traditional cafeteria experience.
Prices are reasonable at $10-$12 for most dishes and students can order ahead for pickup. Lots of options to choose from: BBQ, steak & chops, sushi bar, ramen, dumplings & poke bowls, made to order pasta, pizza, burgers, Mediterranean, Indian, Asian rice bowls, various desserts and crepes at the Cafe, and a Panera in the basement. The top floor seems to be an experimental space and at the time of my visit, they were serving Philly cheesesteaks and Italian beef sandwiches.
Next door there is a McDonald’s on campus under the University Store that’s open late with plenty of tables and desks for students to work.

Nice food hall, with plenty of restaurants. The lower two floors are open to the public and they accept credit cards. Unfortunately this place gets busy and seating is somewhat limited in the winter time.

I tried Indian curry, pasta(cream, tomato, basil one), spicy tuna salmon poke and Ramen for about 2 months.
It's good taste. And it was very enough to be stuffed.
But they serve too small portion for law fish for Poke bowl.

This place is a large food court. Multiple places to eat. Everything is not for everyone. Good place to take a group of people, so everyone can find something that suits them.

The food here is delicious! When you walk in, it’s beautiful, clean, and smells like fresh restaurant food. We fell in love with, The Devil’s Crafthouse bar and restaurant. The staff there is magnificent! Melvin, Javonne, and James are very warm and welcoming. Melvin told us all about the sites to see in Durham. He also remembered my freshman daughter, and said hi to her months later, and asked how her parents were doing, and how she was adjusting. They are very genuine here, and we feel like this is the gem of this hall. The lighting is dim, and it feels ver cozy. The draft beer is delicious ( I recommend the mango Goldenrod beer), and they have shaved ice on a bar strip, to keep your drinks cold. The corn quesadillas are so fresh and sweet, I order them every visit! Their french fries are perfectly salted. They have a fish wrap with plantains, that is so fresh and unique! All of the salad ingredients are very fresh and tasty. They even had salad with a delicious fried egg on top! The food here is wonderful, as are the employees. On the other side, there is a restaurant that makes fresh crepes that are delightful too. The prices are very reasonable in both restaurants. We visit Duke 3 times per year now ( move in day, move out day, Family Weekend), and ae always make a point to have lunch at The Devil’s Crafthouse for the exquisite food, and stellar staff! We look forward to catching up with Melvin and J, and they always remember our names, and are happy to see us. They are this sociable with all of their customers, and I have observed them lighting up all of their guest’s days. This location is a treasure, and I am grateful for their splendid food, and spectacular staff.
Food is very expensive and not that good. very overhyped. vegetables and meats are very low quality. The ramens are too salty, pasta is always overcooked. The margherita is not too bad. Crepes used to be good but since Americans can’t eat nuts they stopped using nutella… The utensils are always EXTREMELY DIRTY! This encourages people to use plastic utensils - very environmentally unfriendly.
