Food Scene
YUM! Go early and be prepared for a wait- this spot is a fav with locals and tourists for a good reason. PRO TIP: if you don't mind dining at the bar, (which is huge and comfy) you can usually get right in. COMING SOON in 2023! A new, larger location on the bypass in Nags head.

TRiO used to be the best spot in Kitty Hawk to meet for a drink (sooo many wines by the glass and dozens of craft beers on tap) and now they've upped their game with a full-on restaurant and the food is awesome! Perfect spot for date night or to gather with friends. They also have a great market for cheese, beer & wine and tasty treats to try there or bring home.
