5 Best Dog Friendly Restaurants Hatteras

“The Reuben and Club were delicious! We’ll be back!“

“The Dancing Turtle is always one of my top must-do’s whenever I’m in Hatteras. The atmosphere is so cozy and welcoming—it’s the perfect spot to relax and soak in the local vibe. Their coffee is consistently excellent, and the staff is always friendly and inviting. Whether you’re starting your day or just taking a break, this place is a gem. Can’t wait to visit again on my next trip down!“

“This is a great spot for any type of grilled creation you can think of. During our week on Hatteras island we had the ramp 55, the chopped cheese, and the island burger. All were excellent and pretty surprising for a small spot in front of the ferry. Definitely recommend. Also met the owner who really cares about the product he's making and his customers' experiences. He let me try a future menu item, and it was ridiculously good.“

“when my now husband and i discussed marriage, i had already known the place i wanted to get married was the Inn on Pamlico Sound. he asked me to marry him Memorial Day weekend 2024, and we booked them as our venue the next weekend. Steve and Meredith and their team remained in constant communication with us regarding every detail, question we had, vendor choices, etc. the dinner options were so hard to choose from but we ultimately decided on the taco bar - because, tacos, duh! we had the chipotle chicken, ground beef, and blackened catch of the day which ended up being mahi mahi. i’ve never been so hype to eat tacos in my life, everything was amazing! and then the home made tortilla chips and salsa just added icing to the cake! everything was delicious and was served hot and ready as our guests were seated - it wasn’t sitting in warming bins just waiting for the ceremony to be over. not only is the venue itself beautiful and stands out, the food and staff made our experience and our guests’ experience truly unforgettable. my husband and i currently live on hatteras island and we will definitely be doing our anniversary dinners at Cafe Pamlico, and i’m already looking forward to it!!! thank you Steve, Meredith, and all staff involved in our day! you all worked your tails off to make everything come together and we so appreciate yall!“

“The food wasn’t the only thing that was great! The prices were awesome and so was the service! Our first time here but certainly not the last! This will be our go to place every year!“
