Poor Richard's Sandwich Shop

Poor Richards is a year round waterfront eatery that has a casual, colorful atmosphere.  A town mural and paintings by locals cover the walls. It is the perfect spot for the vacationer looking for a sandwich, bowl of veggie chili or a hands down best brownie on the Outer Banks! You can dine indoors in wooden booths or at tables or outdoors a stone’s throw from the docks. They offer breakfast and lunch in the main room. The home fries are to die for!

The attached pub comes to life in the evening for dinner and nightlife with live music and a full service bar. The nightly entertainment brings local talent from all over North Carolina and beyond. Food is served in the bar, as well.

A salty dog favorite, Poor Richard's opened in 1984. They use quality Boars Head meats and cheeses in their sandwiches and offer homemade salads and daily specials including delicious crab cakes! The posted hours are summer restaurant hours. The attached pub stays open later.
