Powells Point Arts & Crafts Events - 2024 Schedule

There’s an art to doing a home-style chicken dinner right in the South. You need a chicken fried to golden, crispy perfection obviously. Then you need the appropriate fixings, like mac and cheese and coleslaw. Finally, you need that familial setting of passing the plates, helping yourself and fighting for the very last piece. And we have this art down at The Cookshak Fried Chicken – in fact, it’s our specialty. Choose a whole or half bird and a side dish (or three!), and you have a deliciously easy meal in the making. We also offer lunch deals where you can get two or three-piece meals, sides and a drink. We keep feeding yourself or the whole crew quick and convenient. At our Duck location, you can order carry-out from our window to take home or enjoy at the neighboring Pizzazz Pizza. For a sit-down meal, check out our Nags Head eatery shared with Pizzazz Pizza. Don’t want to venture out? Not a problem. We offer free delivery.

Enjoy Waterfront Dining at Basnight's Lone Cedar Café where we specialize in fresh and local Outer Banks seafood. If you’re craving the freshest fish, clams, crab, shrimp and oysters from local North Carolina waters, you’ll find them at the Lone Cedar Café. Since it first opened in 1996, Basnight’s has been the restaurant where all the movers and shakers in the state would eat when they visted the barrier islands. Owned by Outer Banks native and former state Sen. Marc Basnight and his family, the restaurant, located on the Nags Head-Manteo causeway, is busy nearly all year long. But its lineage is not the reason it’s become so popular. Lone Cedar can boast that it serves only fresh local seafood caught by local fishermen, as well as the freshest North Carolina produce available.
