The live music on the covered deck overlooking the Pamlico Sound adds to the enjoyment, especially during sunset. The restaurant's commitment to consistency and attention to detail ensures a memorable visit for breakfast, brunch, or dinner. Guests particularly praise the Filets, which are cooked to perfection, and the flavorful lobster bisque. The setting is charming, right by the water, making it a perfect spot for dinner. Many recommend making reservations in advance for preferred seating. The view of the sound is gorgeous, enhancing the dining experience. Cafe Pamlico is a hidden gem on the island, highly recommended for both locals and visitors alike, offering a high-quality dining experience that includes delightful dishes like crab cakes, beef filet, and the decadent chocolate Bundt cake for dessert. The made-from-scratch biscuits have also received high praise for their delicious crust, and the overall quality of the food reflects intentional culinary expertise.
