Art's Place
4624 N Virginia Dare Trail, Kitty Hawk, NC
Crema's Take
“Art's Place is a no-frills breakfast and burger spot where locals actually eat, and the kitchen executes simple food with obsessive precision—think half-pound patties seasoned on the griddle and hand-cut fries that justify a detour off the Outer Banks tourist trail. The service is genuinely warm without being precious, and the kind of place where a waitress will steer you right because she eats there herself. Skip the Instagram-bait cafes and come here for food that tastes like someone actually cares.”
What to expect
Classic coffee drinks done right. A slow-sit, outdoor seating spot, good for meetings. Full breakfast, pastries, and light food on the menu. Dog friendly. Family friendly. Parking available.

A no frills beach road burger joint. Their burger and fries are great! Fresh, 1/2 pound patties - seasoned with Worcestershire sauce and pepper once they are put on the flat top. Hand cut fries… yummmmm
