There’s a reason you might see someone wearing a Howard’s Pub t-shirt-no matter where you are on the globe- it’s the fun and casual destination restaurant on Ocracoke Island, NC serving locals and visitors for over 30 years. Howard's is open from early spring until late fall serving fresh seafood, juicy burgers, sandwiches, salads and more. Kids meals are served on a Frisbee. Sit indoors in the air-conditioned dining room, or along the expansive wooden bar, on the airy screened porch with ceiling fans, or relax up on the rooftop deck with a specialty cocktail or a craft on tap in a frosty pint glass and enjoy a panoramic view of the island. Families and large groups are welcome. Plenty of parking for bicycles, golf carts and cars. Memorabilia sprinkled throughout the Pub make it the fun spot for all to enjoy! Find Howard's Pub on Highway 12 a bit north of the village.
