30-minute wait for a late lunch... not bad considering it was freaking packed, and Smacnally's was an hour and a half wait. Pretty cool decor and atmosphere. There are lots of great local brews on tap. Everyone enjoyed their food! My chicken sandwich was awesome. Our server, Alex, was awesome. Great spot for lunch or dinner when visiting Ocracoke Island!
This was my very first time on Oracoke Island ever and the people were fabulous!!! My wife and I decided to come to Howard’s Pub for lunch!!! It was the very best decision of the day!!! The service and staff were excellent!!! The food was served promptly and it was hot and very delicious!!!! My wife and I will definitely be coming back this restaurant again when we come back to this area!!! I highly recommend this place for food you won’t be disappointed!!! My wife got the shrimp basket with fries I got the ribeye steak with Cole slaw and hush puppies. We shared the shrimp and crab dip. A+
Super cool atmosphere.
Oyster shooter was cool with a commemorate shot glass. The beer version was good with a slight spice to it. Oyster was already in the glass. There are better shooters on the island but the souvenir was nice!
Steamed Oysters were just ok, pretty dry and small. Tonic had a terrible taste. I had to give back my drink because I just couldn't drink it.
Server at the bar was awesome.
Upon arriving to Ocracoke Island after a 2+ hr wait at the terminal and a 1 hr ferry trip, this was the first restaurant we came across. It was large and looked very inviting from the outside. However, once inside we were pleasantly surprised. Great staff to take your order and refill beverages. Great ambiance. Great background music (if you like 70s-80s music). But, the food was absolutely delicious.
I ordered a bacon cheeseburger with fries. My friend ordered the steamed shrimp. Everything was great. Highly recommended.

Love from the Alfanos!.. amazing oysters fresh seafood 🦞 There's nice clothing too bearing their name. Cute things!! Definitely on the Ocean!! There's a balcony too!!💕
Definitely a town favorite! Wish I could've gotten pictures of the food but I was so hungry and it was so good, I swallowed it before remembering that I was supposed to take pictures! But I did get the menus! The character in this restaurant/bar is everything! We could've stayed all night! They also offer merchandise like cups, hats, shirts, etc. It's also right next to a brewery. Make sure you stop here and enjoy some amazing food!
Delicious Tuna bite app and thick seared Tuna sandwich…Oysters Rockefeller and fried Blue fish sandwich special ohhhh and the decor way too many interesting license plates
Food was pretty good, especially the hush puppies. I thought the price was a little high for the portion size. I’d go back again though.
Stopped in for lunch today wanting to try something new. We were not disappointed!! Great service, awesome food! The kid's meals are served on frisbees which my kids thought was so cool! I had the shrimp salad sandwich.... delicious!!
Definitely recommend!
Buffalo shrimp was very good...Mahi mahi sandwich was good ...but not as good as shrimp ..Onion rings were good a was service ..
