Durham TreeTops Restaurant Reviews
Surprisingly good hamburgers for the price and being at a zoo!
This was pretty much what we expected for a lunch at the zoo. Typical options like cheeseburger, hot dog, etc. We enjoyed the fries a lot but the hot dog wasn’t great.
We came here mainly because of how it overlooks the monkeys. To our disappointment the monkeys weren’t even in the enclosure right by the restaurant so you couldn’t even see anything.
Pretty good food and great view

Durham TreeTops Restaurant offers a unique dining experience with a view of the Lied Jungle, where guests can observe monkeys and birds. The cafeteria-style service allows you to order, pay, and then find a seat in the indoor seating area. The menu includes hamburgers, salads, fruit, desserts, fountain drinks, and alcohol. While the food is described as mediocre by some, others praise the high-quality hamburgers. The prices are on the higher end, but many find it worth it for the personalized service and unique viewing experience. However, some critics note slow service and poorly marked staff-only areas. Despite these minor drawbacks, Durham TreeTops Restaurant is a popular and memorable dining option at the zoo.
