Very family friendly, with a very kind staff. Sometimes it's a good place to grab a beer and an ear, and other times for some good grub. Or maybe just stop by for dessert on your way home. Whatever the case, this place has a little something for you. Quaint eatery and sometimes live music. You can sit indoors or outside.

Just had THE BEST raw oysters I have ever tasted at Ocracoke Oyster Company! Huge, fresh, and busting with flavor. Peel-and-eat shrimp were succulent and delicious and the blackened flounder with green beans was awesome. Seafood is my favorite, and I loved this place! They also have a nice outdoor patio with funny signs. :)

The absolute best, freshest oysters we’ve ever had! Server said they’re from Cedar Island. Plump, salty, briney sweet, juicy and clean with no shell fragments, crabs or sand. Service was great. Spicy margarita was amazing and worth the ferry ride by itself! Really enjoyed the selection of 5 hot sauces! Prefer non-dairy butter so that was also a plus. 10/10 would recommend and return as often as possible.

Cool place with great staff. Everyone was helpful and friendly with great service. Just love the vibe here. Such a chill, relaxed atmosphere. It used to be the Ocracoke Bar and Grille location. I got the oyster rockefeller and the oyster mon louis. Both were really good! Never had the mon louis before. My wife got the mahi tacos. They were really good as well. The mahi is really well seasoned and cooked. The fish was very juicy and the cilantro crema was a great compliment. The black beans were also good. Had several drinks as well. Will definitely be coming back.

Crab stuffed flounder and oyster salad. We also got the blueberry cobbler, but we couldn't stop to photo it. Everything was amazing! Chill atmosphere and great service. Oh, we also had wings and blackened tuna for appetizers. We're stuffed, but happy!

Ate here for lunch, took my two dogs and they were able to sit outside with us. Food was great. Options were good. I had the raw oyster combo and mahi tuna taco. My wife had the barefoot burger. Food was delicious, came out quick. Also had the bloody Mary, which was ok. Would recommend this place if you're in town.

Enjoyed trying some raw local oysters. Plenty of drink options including local craft beers. Good music on the speakers plus live music several evenings a week. Walking distance from our hotel.
