Ocracoke Restaurants

Fun, eclectic and casual, Howard's Pub serves local fish, oysters, shrimp, juicy chargrilled burgers, salads, sandwiches and more every day from spring until late fall. Enjoy the air-conditioned dining room, the long wooden bar, the expansive screened porch with ceiling fans or the sky deck with an island view. The iconic bar features beers from craft and major breweries on tap and in bottles, wine and signature cocktails. Kids' meals are served on a take-home Frisbee. Howard’s Pub has been a destination for more than 30 years, creating Ocracoke memories for many generations. The wall-to-wall memorabilia and the Pub Shop with its collection of t-shirts, hats and other island treasures make Howard's Pub a legendary spot for food and fun for all ages. 

In the afternoons the deck, patio and yard at Ocracoke Coffee transforms into the MiniBar, the perfect place to relax and socialize with friends and family. The MiniBar serves select N.C. beers, global wines, espresso drinks, kid-friendly drinks and light snacks. It's open Monday through Saturday (in season) and features Island Trivia, live music and DJ dance parties.
