Situated on the edge of the Pamlico Sound with miles of views in every direction, the Po House is Avon village’s premier destination for a tempting meal that times perfectly with an Outer Banks’ sunset. While the views alone will allure diners of all tastes, folks will return again and again for the delicious and tempting menu which features a wealth of seafood dishes, vegetarian options, meaty specialties, and everything in between.
The Po House is located in northern Avon, and is just off of N.C. Highway 12 on the edge of the sound waterfront. As a result, this eatery is best enjoyed in the evening when the sun starts to dip, as the views from the lengthy outdoor patio and the indoor dining area are nothing short of stunning. The menu is equally eye-catching, with a range of dishes that include the locally-famous “Crispy Smasher” potatoes, sandwiches like the namesake Po Boy, and Outer Banks specialties such as crabcakes and fresh tuna. With lots of crowd-pleasing offerings, (as well as daily specials that take advantage of the fresh catches of the season), the Po House is a prime destination for a big dose of what the Outer Banks has to offer.
