This photo features the Bruce Chow Hall entrance on Marine Corps Base Quantico, Virginia, Sep. 3, 2025. The dining facility is set to close on Sept. 8 for a complete renovation, which will include an updated kitchen and food preparation areas, modernized dining spaces, improved HVAC and plumbing systems, and enhanced accessibility and safety features. The renovations are expected to last until mid-2027, so patrons during this time will have to access other chow halls on base for food. Marines who typically received food from Bruce Chow Hall will have provided transportation to Marine Corps Air Facility’s dining facility, Dwyer Chow Hall, while renovations are underway.
