Visiting the beach and found the Blue Crab Tavern- The beer was ice cold- the bartender was on point- the locals were friendly- and the owner, well she was the best! Thank you all for a great time !
The Blue Crab never disappoints and you always feel at home!
Great dive bar! Cheapest beer in the area! Don’t forget to bring your cash, don’t be uptight and just enjoy the local experience. We will come back next time we are in the area.

Blue Crab Tavern is a dive bar known for its cheap drinks and friendly staff, especially Argie, who has run the place from day one. This bar, decorated with Christmas decor, provides a unique local experience and hosts local bands and events weekly. It is a true beer bar, where all beer is served in cans, and most beers cost $3 or $4. The tavern is cash-only, with an ATM inside, making it a great spot for a quiet Sunday afternoon with friends. The outdoor area by the dock offers a lovely place to relax, see local wildlife like herons, and even catch a shooting star. A local favorite and a true landmark in Colington, Blue Crab Tavern is a hidden gem on the Outer Banks that visitors must experience. Parking is available, though the lot is small, making it easy to access from the road or across the street.
