COLINGTON PIZZA IS FOR SALE - Posted By: NCSU Dad on 3/22/2023
An opportunity for someone wanting to make OBX their home. My understanding is the building & business was built by a father & son and sadly the son has passed away.

ELECTRIC BOATS - Posted By: J4yDubs on 3/22/2023
Ok, so I know this might be a controversial topic for some, but I'm going to post it anyway. Regardless of the "saving the earth" claims, there are some very real benefits to electrical. If you still choose to take the topic sideways, that's on you and that's OK. Just don't be surprised if it gets deleted. I've never thought twice about about electric boats. I've had small Jon boats, very f... [Read Full Post]

GOOMBAYS GRILLE & RAW BAR, KILL DEVIL HILLS, SOLD - Posted By: NCSU Dad on 3/22/2023
Here's one more restaurant to be added to the list of restaurants that have changed ownership on OBX. Good news is the new owners are locals. "On Friday, March 17th, One Fish Two Fish Inc passed the Goombays mantle to KDH Punk LLC. We, Charlie and Karen, are so blessed to pass the Goombays legacy to Tony Sipe– one of our loyal employees of 15 years-and Chris Miller-a friend and long time Outer... [Read Full Post]

2023 COUNT DOWN THREAD - Posted By: J4yDubs on 3/22/2023
I haven't seen one of these for a while and the "Your Vacation:" countdown was begging me to start one. We will be in Hatteras Village the last full week of May. We're staying in a house we stayed at in 2018. New owners (they bought it a month before our 2018 vacation) and they've make some nice upgrades. Looking forward to the vacation. 117 days! Feel free to post your countdown.

Top 5 Most Recent Outer Banks Restaurant Reviews
SALTBOX CAFE, THE - A Must-Go Place
We discovered TSBC five - six years ago and made sure we had reservations before we would come down on vacation. Now that we live here (less than 4 minutes from TSBC), we go a least once a month and sometimes twice. Between my wife and I, I think we've kind of tried everything on the menu although they are constantly changing/modifying/tweaking their recipes. We've never even had an 'OK' meal...

BLUE MOON BEACH GRILL - Back to the Blue Moon
My Better Half and I stopped for lunch on a windy, overcast day. The remodeling they've done since we were last there (created a "waiting bar", added a game room, and outdoor dining) were welcome I recall the large crowds inside and outside while waiting for a table before). Even though it was at lunch, there was a small wait... we saw that as a good thing. Sat at the bar in the main area and had... [Read Full Review]

MAKO MIKES, INC. - Mediocre At Best
We recently ate here for the first time and we won't be back. The service was excellent, so I kinda feel sorry for the servers. We both got shrimp that was utterly tasteless and kind of mushy. Frozen shrimp can be done better. Fries were OK, iced tea was godawful.

DAJIO - Very nice restaurant
I had a fish sandwich and my wife had Pesto Pasta, couldn't have been better. The staff was great also. We'll be back for sure

COASTAL CANTINA - Get the Mahi
I had the Mahi Tacos and they were great. Sort of like a small grilled filet in each one. Spicey mayo like sauce was killer. Outside dinning is a plus
