Duck Donuts has four convenient locations ready to serve you. Duck Donuts was established in 2006, and has become a favorite of locals and tourists alike. Donuts are made fresh and handed to you to dress in your favorite toppings. Toppings include cinnamon sugar, powdered sugar, glaze, vanilla, chocolate, maple, strawberry, lemon, peanut butter icing, shredded coconut, chocolate and rainbow sprinkles, and peanuts.

In order to ensure fast and efficient service, Duck Donuts asks that you fill out an order form prior to ordering. Please also note that breakfast sandwiches are offered only in the Kill Devil Hills and Kitty Hawk locations; aside from donuts, you may also choose from a range of yogurts, and whole fruits for your breakfasting pleasure. Duck Donuts sells their wares by singles, half dozen, dozen, and buckets which include 18 lovely rings of baked heaven. Grab a premium locally roasted coffee (hot or iced), or an orange juice, milk, brewed iced tea, lemonade, soda or sport drink to wash down your donuts.

Awful Arthur's Oyster Bar

Welcome to the home of the happy oyster where for over 40 years the oyster has been our world. The Outer Banks only authentic oyster bar is the place to enjoy sensational fare from the sea washed down with your favorite brew or cocktail. We serve by the peck, pound, and dozen, raw or steamed to perfection. Kicked back casual, down to earth friendly staff, and reasonable prices make Awful Arthur’s Oyster Bar the all-time favorite of locals and travelers alike.

The idea wasn’t to set out and establish a new concept restaurant on the Outer Banks, but that’s exactly what Awful Arthur’s owner Jo Whitehead and her late husband, Jay, accomplished more than 35 years ago when they opened the area’s first authentic oyster bar.

 

Awful Arthur’s opened in May 1984 on the Outer Banks. “We embraced the concept of an authentic copper top bar with the idea of it being a major drawing card and it still is,” explains Whitehead. “I get oysters wherever they are local. We follow the warm waters.” 

 

Just across from the ocean, in Kill Devil Hills, oyster season is year-round at Awful Arthur’s. Diners can take a seat at the copper-topped bar to observe the staff shucking oysters, served raw or steamed, along with shrimp, crab legs and clams all steamed to perfection. 

 

It’s not just the raw bar that’s earned Awful Arthur’s both local and national recognition, including being named one of America’s greatest oyster bars by Coastal Living magazine. The restaurant is a seafood-lover’s paradise, offering the freshest catches available.
