Stop for fuel and a Cindy's cake to go. They are marvelous! Over the years we have not not been disappointed with a variety of offerings. One of my favorites has been an Oreo.

I'm looking forward to my next cake already.

This place seemed kinda cute so we stopped by to check it out. It was pretty empty inside but the…read moreemployees were clearly stressed out about something. When my wife asked for assistance, the elderly employee just walked past her. I was able to get help from the younger girl leaning against the counter but to be honest, it seemed like neither of them wanted to be there or help us so we just fended for ourselves. There was a big stage to one side, but nothing happening there so the kids just sat there and waiting for us adults to finishing perusing. There are lots of alcohol and coffee options but nothing stood out as a must have so we ended up not getting anything. We were pretty hungry, but there were no food options except vending machine type food, so we were out of luck. Be sure to grab a seat inside and enjoy the nursing home quality heat levels. There are more seats available outside but the smell of the full trash cans scattered is around was rather unpleasant.

I stopped in while heading down to OBX, in search of a decent latte or frappe, and was blown away by how much more this place offers. Not only did I get a delicious Java chip frappe, but there was also live music playing, great vibes, and a surprisingly wide selection of goodies for sale. It's a cozy, small-town spot that packs everything a tourist could want. The woman running the show was doing it all, from expertly pouring drafts to crafting my frappe with care & she did it with a smile. It's rare to find a place that balances beer, coffee, charm, and community all in one. Whether you're craving a cold brew, need a break from the road, or just want to soak in some local flavor, Blue 42's Brewing Barn is the perfect pitstop.

Pass the Salt is a cute little country cafe operated by the sweetest people!…read more It deserves more than a 5 star rating. This was our second visit. Our family of 5 dropped by in the early afternoon on a Wednesday. We were warmly greeted, seated and made to feel comfortable and at home. The decor is simple and cute. Several tables are constructed of old doors, decorated and covered with glass. Many other artistic and creative decorative touches highlight this cute cafe. There is a good selection of beer, wine and specialty drinks as well as a great assortment of soft drinks. The menu has a wide selection of apps, sandwiches and salads (all unique and intriguing) I am a guy who enjoys a great burger from the great selection. I ordered the "Double Ringer Burger" and added bacon. I just found the best burger that I ever had! Two perfectly seasoned burgers were seared on both sides and perfectly pink in the middle. They were served on a tasty brioche bun with three deep fried onion rings and highlighted with a special sauce. All of the selections chosen by our group earned great reviews from my family. Portions are generous and served with a choice of sides. The house-made desserts sound delicious, but none of us had room to partake. Pass The Salt is well worth the drive from Sandbridge (1 hour).

From 12-layer, Lemon, and Red Velvet Cakes, to huge and decadent Muffins, and everything in between!

If you're ever on Rt 168 going to or from the Outer Banks, look for the "Liberty" gas station (can't miss it), and stop in! *CLOSED Sundays* You can thank me later ;-)

The coffee here is strong and fairly priced - they have the standard espresso, cappuccino, drip coffee options along with fun summer concoctions for iced coffee lovers. There's a small seating area in the front of the shop where you can enjoy your coffee and read the latest book. Service here is friendly, you may experience a bit of a wait for your coffee depending on how busy it is, but in my opinion it's worth the wait. They have a good mix of classic book titles along with new releases, so if you need something to read while you're sitting on the beach you'll find it here.
