Our Favorite Oak Island Things

We love this place. BBQ is delicious- mac and cheese is always a winner. Corn nuggets and the hush puppies are awesome! If they are busy...be sure to order take out- and they offer PINTS!

CLOSED SUNDAYS!
We love this place- but it is only open for breakfast and lunch (until 2 pm) and not on Sunday! Burgers, waffles, clam chowder, everything is great! SWEET TEA is the very best! Reasonably priced too. They can get busy, but offer a "paging" service- that reaches across the way to the artisian center.

***Update*** The building is currently up for sale and as of now is open for the 2024 season. Be sure and check their days/hours!** Great for fresh seafood! We always get our seafood here and make our own "pot" at home. They will also steam it for you for a minimal charge and put Old Bay Seasoning on it too.

Shopping
Habitat For Humanity
4170 Long Beach Rd SEA great spot to shop.
This is a great place to order groceries (etc) ahead of time and either get pick up or delivery. You can set a pick up date/time while you are still in your home location- which is great- and then do pick up. I always hate wasting time hunting around a new grocery store looking for items- so this really helps. You can also add other items besides groceries. A real helper. Plus- a bit cheaper than Publix or Food Lion (both on the Island.)
