Top Dog Cafe has been a local icon serving great food for more than 20 years on Hatteras Island. They’re reputed to have some of the biggest and best burgers on the Banks, the largest of which is the two-pound Cyclone. The huge fish tacos are a legend of their own. Top Dog also offers innovative salads, wraps, appetizers, burgers, seafood, sandwiches and dinner entrees. Some of the favorite items are the Cajun crab wrap, Jamaican tuna wrap, bacon-wrapped scallops, Portobello and Swiss burger, Parrothead Salad and Paradise Pasta. The screened porch atmosphere is relaxed and rustic Keys-style casual — perfect for the whole family. Kids’ meals are available, and beer and wine are served. Top Dog is open for lunch and dinner seven days a week in the summer and is closed on Tuesdays and from 3 to 5 p.m. weekdays in the spring and fall.
