49 Best Dog Friendly Restaurants Manteo

“Delicious food and friendly service! Water view!“

“Baristas were super friendly and coffee/food was delicious! Will be back!“

“What a lovely restaurant, and one of the best meals we’ve had in years. The cocktails were strong, and flavorful. The fried green tomatoes were probably the best we’ve ever had— I’ll be having dreams of those. And the coq au vin was tender and had wonderful flavor. Also huge portions for what you pay for. We will be back!“

“Great stop for your morning coffee at KDH!“

“Food was above par- the pork knuckle was tender and smokey, delicious. It's a small dining room, so it was loud and hard to have a conversation. The service was attentive at first, then we were forgotten about. Glad we did stop in, and the town is super adorable.“

“I had a wonderful experience at Big Buck’s Homemade Ice Cream! I ordered the strawberry sorbet, and it was absolutely delicious—perfectly refreshing and bursting with real strawberry flavor. You could really taste the quality of the homemade recipe. Ashley, my server, was fantastic; she was friendly, attentive, and made the visit even better with her warm personality. Highly recommend Big Buck’s for anyone craving a sweet treat, especially their sorbet!

Kid-friendliness: Sorbet is dairy free ice cream“

“Ortega'z - what a GREAT gem! Heard about this restaurant on Guys Diners, Drive-Ins, and Dives; and boy, it not disappoint! The pulled pork nachos appetizer was absolutely HUGE and AMAZING! YES, all caps is necessary. We also ordered two entrees - fish tacos and also Buffalo chicken tacos. Both came with 3 tacos, and rice and beans. Everything was so delicious and the portion sizes were great! Great prices for the amount of food you receive. Oh, and the service was great also! Will be returning very soon!“

“Happy to find Stripers on our way home from the beach! The staff was super nice and the food was really great 😊 we loved the fresh halibut served with tacos and fresh veggies and the mimosas were tall and tasty! Dining on their patio was dreamy on a sunny day taking in the marina and ocean breeze! And they treated our dog Max like a king! Thank you!“

“Love Ashley’s espresso and all the people that work there are awesome! The owner is a rockstar who loves her community and others!
We get to buy local art and hang out and meet artists like, Dawn, who are so amazing! Great vibes, amazing coffee, def for coffee lovers - take some home or bring with ya! #obx #local #roaster #coffee“

“Get here as early as you can as once the night hits, it's crowded - but it all makes sense as the FrYo is delicious and the atmosphere is on point. Don't forget to leave a donation on the wall, ceiling or anywhere as it's for a great cause. Friendly staff when we attended and very helpful. Very organized layout as well. You pay by the oz / weight. Enjoy!“

“South Beach Grill is a staple during our annual OBX vacation. We order from there 2-3 times during the week. They are fast, friendly, and ordering is easy online. Dinner for our group of 9 was ready for pick-up in less than 20 minutes. Everyone has tried multiple things from the menu and everyone was extremely pleased with everything they’ve tried. My favorites are the southwest wrap, burgers, and Buffalo chicken Philly. Their fries are delicious… especially with their fry sauce or BBQ ranch. South Beach Grill is a must have on your OBX vacation!“

“Stopped for the ice cream fell in love with the cookies. The ice cream is from a NC creamery and I recommend the Lemon Crunch 🍋 But the cookies are a blessing for your taste buds. I got the coconut cookie and my husband raved about the white chocolate macadamia. I wish we had tried this sooner... but it's 10 miles down the beach 😆“

“A must stop while in the Outer Banks. An awesome variety of beer with a great staff!“

“Last night was our last night here and the wife and I decided to give this a try. I can’t say enough good about the service (Jade was awesome), food was delicious (scallops were on point), and the location was perfect with a wonderfulview. (note the picture).“

“My review is for the humanity the owner has shown. I was reading my latest Readers Digest when an acknowledgement was submitted about how the owner Kevin had driven 6 hours one way to deliver what was basically an elders last meal, because it was her last wish…to have a pork tenderloin meal from this establishment. If some day I travel SE from Indiana and anywhere near I will definitely stop to support. Well done my man.“

“Just had one of the best meals I’ve ever had. There were 6 adults and 2 children in our party. The appetizers were fantastic and the entrees were delicious and beautifully plated. Live music was an added bonus! Very happy to have found The Saltbox Cafe!“

“Cousins loved everything ordered. Amazing Coffee and Staff. Have a blessed Easter!“

“Had amazing coffee special of the day…mmmm…what a lovely group of sweet souls working that day!! 💜🦄🫧 Three words you must remember …chocolate whipped cream! Great eco friendly accessories too…and I love my mermaid mug so much it’s my profile pic!“

“Great food, great service and great location!“

“We returned to the Outer Banks last week after a 20 year hiatus, remembering Tortuga's Lie as one of our favorite places to eat. We ate there on the second night of our stay and no one in the family was disappointed. I had the grilled salmon salad special and coming from a tough critic, it was DELICIOUS and did not disappoint! Everyone enjoyed their meal and the "vibe" was just the same as we remembered. We can't wait to visit again.“

“Great drinks, great appetizers“

“Great experience at this restaurant. My girlfriend had fried oysters. I had grilled grouper and diced red skin potatoes. Our waitress,Ashley, was so helpful with assisting me with selections that were safe with my gluten allergy. 5:30 PM on a Saturday evening, they were quite busy, but we had no wait for a table for two. Highly recommend!“

“Love this place 😊 coming for 5 years now...Ben was great 😊 great drinks & food....love they allow pets 😊“

“BEST GF/DF pizza I have ever had, amazing and now I want to move here just for the pizza!“

“Out of all the great places my husband and I visited, this place was a must go to! We visited this place for their amazing shave ice TWICE. It would have been three times, but their customer lines can be very long. Can you blame them?!? The shave ice, no matter the flavor, captures the juice liquid so well, it melts in your mouth and is not overbearing. You don't even get brainfreeze! The ice is truly shaved. Not chunky or snowballed at all. Two thumbs up! We will visit this place AGAIN and AGAIN next year.“

“This place is one of our favorites! The outdoor seating is so cute right on the water. We absolutely love it!“

“One of the nicest waitress "s I have had the privilege of meeting (El"lisa) I wish all treated customers like this young lady. P S good food. Hope yall will take the time to give her a pat on the back“

“5 out 5 stars. Food was delicious. Mark brought our food , set everything up. Very professional. This was our third time. Never disappoints.“

“This is a first class restaurant in every aspect. When you enter, you are immediately greeted with a warm and friendly smile. The atmosphere of the restaurant is unique and very nice. The wait staff is always friendly, and ready to meet your every need. We have tried many items on the menu and have been most satisfied with every entree. The desserts are great also. If you come to the Outer Banks and would like a first class experience, I highly recommend this fine restaurant.“

“fantastic food and service. Great place to go on beach road. really really good tuna, fries, sandwiches and so much more. been going for years. never disappoints us. Wanda the host is awesome.“

“I had a wonderful omelette made with fresh vegetables and turkey bacon. The fresh pressed juice was so delicious. As a person with food allergies, Freshfit has many options for me. They offer vegan and gluten free items, plus turkey sausage or bacon instead of pork. We can’t wait to eat there again on our next OBX visit!“

“3 Tequila's is one of our favorite places for family dining! We're local OBX and can always count on friendly service and delicious food.“

“Great place to pick up an outstanding breakfast burrito. I came to eat some breakfast on the porch with my dog. Very friendly people that brought out a bowl of water for my pup and checked on me frequently. Coffee was great too! We will be back 🌯🐾🥰“

“Amazing Food!! The Ron Swanson burger is banging!“

“We arrived to OBX before our house was ready, so we decided find a place for lunch. We decided to try Dune Burger. The burgers were delicious along with the onion rings. When we went, there was a sign stating no shakes. The parking lot is small. They have plenty of picnic tables to enjoy your meal.“

“great meal Love the brisket,“

“My family and friends love Chilli Peppers and have been going here for years. Small and cozy atmosphere with fantastic food! They have some unique food options like Chimichurri Oysters and daily specials that you won't find anywhere else on the beach! Great a little bar that's a local favorite and a small outdoor area.“

“Awesome delicious FRESH food! We were here for over a week...after 2 meals there...well then we ate EVERY meal there. Breakfast, lunch, n supper!! Only place to eat for us!!“

“Walked in 40 minutes before closing to have dinner with my daughter and granddaughter and the staff was absolutely wonderful! And the food was AMAZING! This will be our new go to spot! We even got a complimentary sample of their she crab soup…. OMG!!!!“

“Let’s start with saying the waiter had excellent customer service . And when we received our food its was delicious. The waiter checked on us often and very nice partying words .“

“After driving by this place for years, we finally decided to try it out this trip and we are kicking ourselves for not coming sooner. The food was, hands on, the best meal we have had in Nags Head across multiple years of trips. Food - amazing, service - amazing, view - amazing.“

“I’ve been coming to the Outer Banks for 30 years. I remember getting the best burger on the OBX at this restaurant. Apparently they have stopped serving food. That is not the issue. I called up to ask if they no longer serve burgers, and was told “this isn’t McDonald’s”. I don’t appreciate being spoken to that way from a worker of a restaurant I want to spend my money at. If they can’t train their staff to have better customer service, I cannot imagine how poorly they treat customers at the restaurant. Very disappointed.“

“Geat food and service, and great live music in bar!“
