Ten O Six – The carry-out breakfast and lunch is worth the stop. Stop in and take your next meal back to the cottage or straight to the beach.
Stop n Shop – Great deli sandwiches and located just across the street from the beach. Just call in your order from the beach and walk over to pick it up.
​
Awful Arthurs – One of the best sandwich menus on the beach. We especially recommend the hot & spicy tuna sandwich as well as the hushpuppies.
Outer Banks Brewing Station – Good menu and a nice backyard for outdoor dining with live music in the evenings. Highly recommend the shrimp and grits
Red Drum Taphouse – We can’t say enough good things about the tuna burrito!
Hurricane Mo’s – Best happy hour on the beach with steamed shrimp, wings and tacos.
Colington Café – Just off the beaten path, but less than 1.5 miles from the beach, Just a bit fancier than most but you can still dress casual for a fantastic meal.
Blue Moon Beach Grill – New location for 2023 with a great backyard and outdoor bar. One of the few local places that takes reservations but you’ll typically need to call earlier than the day you’d like to dine.
Pier House Restaurant – Located on Nags Head Pier and one of only a few places to dine with an ocean view. Breakfast here is a great way to start the day.
Slice Pizzeria – Probably our favorite pizza on the beach. Primarily carry-out, with “by-the-slice” ready to go or you can call and order a whole pizza. Don’t forget the garlic knots.
Food Dudes Kitchen – Caribbean inspired seafood menu. Relatively small location but worth the wait.
Noosa Beach Grille – great seafood menu and one of the few local places that takes reservations.
Saltbox Café – Reservations accepted. Sunday brunch is great.
Outer Banks Boil Company - Great after a day on the beach when you don't want to cook or take the family out to wait for a meal. They bring dinner, boil it on site, serve it and even clean up afterwards.
​
Surfin’ Spoon – Frozen yogurt that’s not to be missed, fill your own bowl and add your own toppings. They also make a variety of fro-yo sandwiches.
American Pie – We're sure the pizza is great, but we go for the home-made ice cream. Don’t miss the apple pie ice cream.
