BEADS & BEANS OBX

I preordered some cinnamon rolls and chocolate croissants for my coworkers. When I arrived I was pleasantly greeted and my order was ready and was packaged in nice boxes and tins to keep the pastries safe during travel and fresh!! Love this place so much!!! Best tasting pastries!!! Highly recommend!

We have been coming to the island for a long time but have never tried this place. We LOVED it. Best coffee I’ve had. Smooth, not too sweet. The barista was so kind. And their selection is wild, they have over 80 flavors 👏 highly recommend.

Amazing coffee that came out in a few minutes! Newly diagnosed with gestational diabetes and was hoping to find a coffee I could have! Soooo many sugar free options and the coffee tasted so good. Thank you and 10/10 recommend!

Absolutely the most delicious coffee ever combined with exceptionally accommodating service and beautiful art.

Absolutely the BEST coffee served by the BEST humans ever!

This shop was recommended to us by the welcome center and I’m so glad it was! Great service. Amazing sweets. Lots of goodies to look at. We will definitely be back multiple times during our trip.

Awesome place to grab a bite to eat before you head out to explore the island! Best breakfast bacon egg croissant I’ve ever had!

I bought hot honey. It's delicious on a whole lot of things. The coffee smells and tastes awesome. So many things to look at. Everyone was so nice in there. It's a must stop if your down their way. You won't leave empty handed.

Nice place, but they really need to work on being a cafe with a shop. It really is lacking in the cafe food department, but the atmosphere is ok albeit a little cramped.

Wonderful local business that gave back to the community with a donation of 2 huge sheet cakes & pumpkin parfaits to Hatteras Island Meals which the recipients were totally thrilled with! Thank you so much for your generosity, Daphne! HIGHLY, HIGHLY RECOMMEND!

My new fave place! Coffee was delicious, and the shop is filled with all kinds of wonders! Hatteras Jack latte is delish. Loving my new blanket.

Super cute coffee shop and souvenir shop offering a variety of drinks and trinkets. They fit a lot in a small space, so the aisles of the souvenir side can get a little cramped.
Theres a good variety of drinks on the menu, lots of regular and sugar-free syrup options, and they had a few tasty sounding fall specials. I got a simple vanilla frappe, but there is perfection in simplicity when done well, and this place did it very well. You could see vanilla bean bits in the drink, super tasty.
We arrived and there was plenty of parking, though when we left it was getting a little full. Luckily this place is within walking distance of our vacation rental so we'll bypass the car tomorrow. There's a conveniently placed crosswalk right near it to allow for a safe walk as well.
There's a couple tables and adirondack chairs for outdoor seating which we enjoyed before heading out.
Definitely recommend, excited to return.

Dietary restrictions: They offer a variety of milk alternatives

Kid-friendliness: It's kid-friendly but a cramped space for kiddos with grabby hands.
