Restaurants in Havelock

“Needed a beer and taco after a situation at a local lazy tire store.
They did not fail! Margarita some steak tacos guacamole and I felt a lot better. The guy at the counter was so nice and the food was out of this world. Best place ever”

“Great food, great service. when i eat here, the cost matters not. I have not had a bad experience at BOW. even if it was a bad day, it was still better than the best day at YOUR favorite restaurant. they get my money everytime they are close to the job. my only gripe is they don't come to morehead enough. Then again that's probably good for the pocket and waistline.”

“Pho Van is our favorite restaurant in the area. Food is very tasty and fresh. They have a great selections and prices are very reasonable. Highly recommend trying it if you haven’t.”

“Exceptional pool hall! One added benefit is being connected to the club, so there’s always fun to be had. Great atmosphere, great drinks, and overall a wonderful experience. Can’t wait to return!!!”

“I highly recommend Shimoda! It's our go-to restaurant after church on Sundays. Their food always comes out quickly and tastes amazing! Best sushi in the area. The owner & staff are always kind and make sure guests have everything they need.”

“Took my husband there tonight and he was amazed at the food. I ordered the grilled scallops and catfish. OMG! It was very tasty. The spices were awesome and the catfish was grilled perfectly, very moist. My husband had the fried chicken and loved it! He can’t wait to go back and try the meatloaf. The service was great. We met the owner who stopped by and when I told him I was disappointed they were out of their crab dip, he told me to hold on, he had to check something. We were already eating our meals and he came out with a delicious crab dip made just for us. It was so delicious that it reminded us of our Maryland crabs. To all my fellow Northerners looking for some good spice and seafood , definitely check this place out!”

“⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ Absolutely wonderful experience! From the moment we walked in, we were greeted with a warm welcome that made us feel right at home. It’s clear this is a family-owned local gem that takes pride in what they do. The panini and soup were both outstanding — fresh and flavorful. Highly recommend stopping by if you’re in the area and want great food served with genuine hospitality!”

“The food, service, and price are great and they have a different menu compared to the other restaurants in the area if you're looking to mix it up. We should probably broaden our horizons and try other things on the menu, but we are stuck on the papusas and stuffed jalapeñosfor now.”

“Best bar in Havelock!!! The people there are amazing!”

“Went for dinner tonight with friends so I was able to taste four different meals, they were all phenomenal. I ordered the Methi Garlic Chicken, it’s my new favorite dish! Hubby had the Chicken Makhani and he’s still raving about how much he loves the flavors. Bonus we all had enough left overs for lunch tomorrow. Highly recommend!”

“This is the best Asian food in Havelock. I love this place and the people that work there.”

“The guys were awesome, the young lady was visibly irritated and clearly did not want to be there. Lunch time was extremely busy but the guys took it in stride and moved quickly, the young lady didn't appear to have any urgency about her and I never her saw her really do anything. This was on 9/26/25 around noon. The sandwiches were great and so awesome that they offer gluten-free bread!”

“Spectacularly priced and food was delicious. Especially the lumpia! Afterburner was yummy and had a good kick! I got my food quickly and they were busy as all get out!”

“This used to be the best Chinese restaurant that we have gone to, like every time we were in a different town and tried a different Chinese restaurant…they were always compared to the king…Taste of China in Havelock, BUT our last 3 visits have been met with a decline in quality of food, like it really feels like the food is more bland.”

“I was home not feeling well today and ordered a burger and fries for delivery. It was absolutely delicious! I loved the personal touch on the ranch that you put in a larger takeout container so it did not spill or leak. Thank you! I will visit on site very soon.”

“Havelock NC Dairy Queen..the young man working this Monday, May 12th is phenomenal! Efficient, courteous, and he is going places! His customer service should be an example to all!”

“The employee that I met was kind and respected. The order was hot and smelled great. Just two small issues parking and without maps to guide it would be hard to locate. Parking is possible but difficult.

Parking: It was difficult to maneuver in such a small lot.”
