It is conveniently located at the beach on the main road, Ford Macon Road en route to the Circle and other Atlantic Beach public shorelines. Beachgoers can shop local and stop in for something refreshing and will love colorful Sub Tropics - a sandwich, wrap and smoothie spot that's located in the heart of Atlantic Beach, just off the Atlantic Beach Causeway. I love what one review on google said, "cheerful customization from the chief, Charles." I also added a pic of some dolphins we saw. Be kind to the animals tho and be sure pick up all of your trash while at the beach. Stop in to SUB TROPICS for a treat on your vacay.

The moment we arrived, I felt like I had accidentally entered a time machine and landed somewhere in the 1990s. Numbers for wait management? Being called by your number? Classic diner-style seating and service? Even the checkout experience had strong "please rewind the VHS" energy. And honestly, I loved it. The food was fantastic. The shrimp and grits were amazing, especially with the buttery toast. The chicken sandwich was absolutely on point, and the waffles were perfectly crunchy and delicious. Now, the 3% credit card fee did try to bring me back to 2026 for a moment. But after that food, I think I can emotionally recover. If you're anywhere around Emerald Isle, Atlantic Beach, or Indian Beach, do yourself a favor and stop here. Come hungry, be prepared to wait a little, embrace the 90s experience, and enjoy some seriously good food. Would definitely come back. Just don't ask me to explain what a VHS tape is.

This is an unexpectedly great restaurant right at the center of activity in Atlantic Beach. In my…read moreexperience, finding good seafood restaurants in and around Atlantic Beach (even including Morehead City - where there are a dwindling few) can be surprisingly difficult, especially compared to the pelagic bounty of most coastal Carolina towns. Bahia has probably the best food I've had from any of the current crop of Atlantic Beach places. Every dish I've tried so far has been excellent. One in particular needs to be highlighted. The crab dip is possibly the best I've ever eaten, anywhere. You need to try it. Pro tip: Be prepared for the generous amount of butter and oil in and on the food -- it adds to the richness and is definitely a good thing, but you'll want to be careful if you're planning on performing microsurgery or wiping your eyeglasses. There is unobtrusive but good quality live music, which is always a plus (and seems more well-considered than the solo guitar dudes repeatedly playing "Free Fallin" at the neighboring restaurants and bars). The air conditioning indoors does a heroic job of keeping the restaurant a relatively nice temperature, as well.

Dare I say this is the BEST breakfast I've ever had? The Banks Grill absolutely blew me away!…read more Let's start with their "famous cinnamon rolls." They weren't lying about that title! This has to be one of the best cinnamon rolls I've ever tasted. You can choose between cream cheese frosting or pecan praline, and I HIGHLY recommend the praline. Here's a little tip: if you have any of that delicious sauce left over, dip your biscuit in it. Trust me, you can thank me later! Speaking of biscuits, they come with housemade apple or seasonal pumpkin butter, jams, and real butter. Talk about starting your morning off right! Now, let's talk about what I ordered: the Land and Sea Benedict. A large, fluffy, housemade biscuit topped with perfectly seasoned and cooked shrimp, fried green tomatoes, and Creole gravy, served with two eggs cooked to order and finished with bacon bits. Y'all, this breakfast CHANGED MY LIFE. Every bite was incredible, and I was genuinely sad that I couldn't eat more because I was so full. That's how good it was! If you're looking for a small, local cafe serving up absolutely incredible food, look no further. The Banks Grill is the kind of place that reminds you why supporting local businesses is so important. Put this spot on your breakfast bucket list! I promise you won't want to miss it. I'm already dreaming about my next visit!

It is extremely disappointing that there is a "mandatory face mask" requirement, yet 2/3 of the people behind the counter were not wearing a mask. These people are preparing and touching food and I cannot believe that they are not following the "enforced" rules. Why is there no one at the door or in the store enforcing this rule? How are we supposed to get out of this pandemic if people can't seem to care about anyone but themselves? The manager needs to do something about this. I liked this place, but hope people don't get COVID-19 from the irresponsible people working here. read more

We ended up here twice on our vacation! Authentic NY pizza (family is from Long Island and Brooklyn - we know good pizza). Friendly and quick service! The owner saw we had a 1.5 year old with us, and cut up a veggie slice for us and took it out of the oven a few minutes early so it wasn't so hot! Definitely saved us a meltdown! Lots to choose from - we got salad, pizza, and garlic knots! Yum! read more
