Restaurants near Buxton

“Our favorite lunch spot since we began vacationing in the Outer Banks around a decade ago! The food is always consistent(ly amazing), the staff is super friendly and attentive and you never are in need of something. Decor is super funky and there is no shortage of things to look at! We love the fish tacos, shrimp and corn chowder, and the house-made tuna salad! We try to get there early as this places gets PACKED as the shift goes on, especially as more families head off the beaches to look for food. But if you do have to wait for a table, it is super worth it!!!!”

“This is a cool place. Great donut, kind of a cross between cake and yeast donut..... A fried cake-type. Of course the apple ugly is delicious as well, crispy, apple-y, cinnamon-y, with a soft doughy interior. I wouldn't go there just for the coffee, it's fine if you just want a hot drink.....Nice porch too!”

“Very good service and food”

“Having a crab boil at our wedding was so fun and one of the many highlights of the night! Everyone commented on how delicious the food was and OBX Boil was not only super responsive, but very flexible with the changes I asked to make during the planning process. There was one mix up with the vegetarian boil and they were so kind to try to fix it on the spot just to make sure everybody was happy. I would use OBX Boil again and again for our catering needs.”

“Ate here 4 years ago and again this week. Everything was just as amazing. Best shrimp ever. Large portions, fast and fresh to your table. Great tap list. Excellent service. Keep doing what you do!! We will be back ?”

“Yummy treats and excellent customer service!! We came very close to closing time not realizing their hours but she still took the time to explain all the safe options for my kids with food allergies and took the extra steps needed to ensure there was no cross contamination. We are so thankful to have a safe spot for treats when we come on vacation and will definitely be back. Thank you!!”

“Amazing food and service must stop.”

“Emme and I used Kats Deli to cater our wedding reception on the Mrs Hatteras boat (also amazing). They did a great job making the food easy to eat on the boat, and it was fantastic even after having to wait a bit due to some timing complications. We got a mix of a lot of sandwiches, but I will say for our group The Charlie was the group favorite, though the Jurassic pork was close behind for me. We plan to make Hatteras a regular trip at this point and I can guarantee we will be stopping by Kats when we get the chance again.”

“My husband and I got a burrito, steak nachos and tacos. Best Mexican food I've had in a long time. Plus huge portions. Nachos were loaded. We would go back again.”
