Fayetteville’s new, two-story food hall called “The Forge” is under construction and set to open in summer 2026. Strategically located at the intersection of Santa Fe Drive and the All American Freeway, this food hall will be a key component of a new mixed-use multifamily development.

The first three vendors going in the space have been announced: 

  • Kusinera Filipino Cuisine – Authentic Filipino comfort food made with heart.
  • The Greek Goat Raleigh – Fresh Mediterranean flavors inspired by Greece.
  • Ichi-Kaku Ramen – Handcrafted ramen bowls and Japanese street-style dishes.

“These vendors represent a diverse, delicious mix that will make The Forge a true community gathering spot,” shared the developer On 3 Build on Facebook.
