This place is right down the street from our OBX home. We had high hopes for it. Unfortunately, our hopes surpassed the reality. Everyone in our group said the food was "just ok." Two of us ordered the fish and chips and selected the fish of the day based on the server's recommendation. When it arrived, it was one of... More

I had raw oysters and the Jamaican wings. Both were excellent. Now onto the service. As a solo dinner I decided to sit at the bar. I ordered the food with no problem. I later asked for a beer which never came, it seemed the bartender was far more interested in catching up with an old friend than seeing to... More

I enjoy the fish and chips and the crabcake sandwich. Kids will get a kick out of the decorared ceiling and the murals on the walls. A bar... More

I am in love with this bar. I travel to the Outer Banks annually and this is always our first stop for afternoon beers and steamed shrimp. There is a great energy in this place and I have always found myself meeting new people and enjoying the conversation with the staff and the customers. The food is consistently good and... More
