35 Best Vegan Restaurants near Manteo

“Delicious food and friendly service! Water view!“

“Delicious meals and awesome service for our table of 9 people! We really enjoyed it. Great views of the marina as well!“

“great fried chicken and fajitas“

“We enjoyed our breakfast very much! Shout out to our wonderful waitress that understood what “Heavy on the powdered sugar” meant! I was a happy camper! Everything we had was delicious! Line moves very quick and food comes out just as fast!“

“Very busy in the evenings with a line out the door. They had enough flavors to choose from- Think Orange Leaf style custard.

Seemed to be a favorite amongst the kids and locals. They have some outdoor seating where you can sit and enjoy your selections but honestly with the toppings bar you really want to hang back and wait for people to add on their toppings before you approach if you don't want your custard to melt.

I was mindful of this and had noticed some slower moving, indecisive individuals (do we really need toppings?) and my custard still was melting quickly after a few steps out of the door.

Recommend getting there earlier in the evening when it's less busy. Also observed a mom that dropped their 8 year old off at the ramp and the kid darted off in front of us, cutting us off as we were about to enter the ramp. The mom parked and then joined her son afterwards (really? Lol)

I guess what im trying to say is if you're over 21 and grown but still want to enjoy some treats you should try to go earlier than later to avoid some of the riff raff 😂“

“The best food I’ve ever had in my life !! Will definitely be back!! Make sure yall ask for Brian 😉“

“The food is phenomenal. Try the Hawaiian Pork Platter. OMG deliciousness!! And the staff is on their game - friendly, casual - all around great service. I will be back EVERY time I’m down here! Yummy.“

“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.“

“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!“

“My favorite spot, and the only place I know of on the beach with a focus on organic vegan food and drinks. Everything I have ever had here has made me feel nourished and aligned. Absolute perfection.“

“The best ice cream on the beach! It’s all homemade using the finest ingredients. The flavor combos the master chef creates will give you a treat that cannot be matched anywhere else. I try to get something different each visit but everything is so delicious it’s hard not to want a scoop of the flavors I already love plus try something new that I know I’ll enjoy just as much! This place is a 10 out of 10!!!“

The staff is amazing, the customer service is top-notch, and the food… absolutely outstanding. Every detail was handled with such care, and their team went above and beyond. Everyone was SO nice!!

“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!“

“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 🌯🐾🥰“

Long story short another on was on our table and fell off onto my husband's lap. Disgusting!! Never Again. The place was bit that crowded now i know why. EXTERMINATE PLEASE!!!!!“

“We visit yearly. One of our favorite places to visit.“

“Veerything waa great. They kept the buffet well stocked and the snow crab legs regularly being refilled. All the sides were delicious! My family was very satisified. Only complaint is out of their control, many of the other dinners were just selfish and rude. Take note: there is plenty of food! You can grab a cluster or two and leave some behind. They woll have more out by the time youre ready for it. No need to take 6 clusters at a time or edge kids out of the way for a cluster.“

“we go every time we make a trip there, but last week we had a extra awesome waiter that we adored. he went above and beyond and was super friendly!! love the food and the portion size. Definitely worth a visit“
