Waterfront Restaurant on Hatteras Island
Experience the flavors of the Outer Banks at Cafe Pamlico, the signature waterfront restaurant at The Inn on Pamlico Sound. Our chefs create inventive, contemporary coastal cuisine driven by locally sourced seafood, meats and produce. Fresh fish arrives daily from the docks in Hatteras Village, and many of the herbs and fruits we use are harvested from our on‑site gardens.
With an award‑winning wine list, handcrafted cocktails and panoramic sunset views of the Pamlico Sound, Cafe Pamlico offers one of the most memorable dining experiences on the North Carolina coast. Enjoy casually elegant indoor dining, our copper‑topped bar or breezy covered patio seating—all surrounded by the natural beauty of the Pamlico Sound and the Cape Hatteras National Seashore.
Whether you’re celebrating a special occasion or savoring a relaxed evening by the water, Cafe Pamlico blends refined cuisine, warm Southern hospitality, and a welcoming, intimate atmosphere. Rooted in community and shaped by a passionate culinary team, our waterfront restaurant on Hatteras Island continues to set the standard for coastal dining on Hatteras Island.
