    Inside. Very clean place! Super busy they just opened.
    Michelle W.

    Came around 12:30. I believe they just opened for the lunch crowed. The unsweet tea was freshly brewed. Little bit of a wait for the food but lots of seats for hungry dinners. Inside seating, bar seating and outside tables. Food can be to go too. Theres a chalk board and magnets for kids to play with while they wait too. Fun family place for lunch! Bathrooms are clean too. One person to a bathroom. I didn't see changing tables however. There food is awesome. Burgers are tasty. They would of gave 5 guys a run for their money for sure. The french fries are super crispy and the onion rings are great! They came with homemade sauce as well. I think its homemade ranch with a very small amount of hot sauce. With a toddler i chose to do a tail gate lunch/ picnic with it and it worked out great! All the burgers are customizable too with toppings. Best part is get lunch then walk down to get a cupcake from the cake store along with there soda float for dessert!

    This place is a great burger place but they also have non beef selections as well. Their burgers are pretty daggone tasty and I am sure they use a nice beef selection for their burgers due to the great flavor. The other awesome thing about this place is the half and half option of fries and onion rings. Their fries are good but onion rings are awesome. To top it off, they have their own special sauce for their burgers along with a dipping sauce. This place is a great lunch or dinner stop while in Morehead City. You won't be disappointed. I don't easily give five stars but I couldn't figure out a reason why not and I could find anything I would change. Great place!!

    Pimento burger

    Good burger, AMAZING onion rings! Right across the way from Wal Mart, it's a pretty tiny place with a few outside tables. Decided to stop in for a quick lunch after doing some shopping in Morehead & I was not disappointed. Had the pimento burger, half fries & half onion rings with a drink - $14. The side was big enough to share with another person so I ended up bringing quite a bit of food home. If you go, get the onions rings, seriously so good! The burger was also really good, I would've liked more pimento cheese since it didn't stand out much to me but it was overall a solid burger. Good quality patty & ingredients. The menu is short & simple and they have specials which is written on a board at the front.

    Fried pickles

    This place earns burger bragging rights. The burgers are fresh and made by hand. They have an excellent selection ranging from a basic meat patty on a bun to daily specials for the food adventurous. I had the Goulda Apple Burger (Gouda cheese, grilled apple, onion rings), hubs had the Firehouse (2 Pattie's, bacon, mushrooms, onions) we split the 1/2 & 1/2 (fries and onion rings side) and a side of fried pickles. Everything was so good. If you are looking for a gourmet burger, don't sleep on Morehead Burger Co.

    Hot dog!

    Finally found a yummy hot dog today! Bun was perfect and hot dog was really good too! Grilled the onions for me cause I can't eat 'em raw. My pics aren't the best... in my car!

    Onion rings and fries with house sauce. Onion rings are thin and crispy. Yum!

    The burger tasted homemade and onion rings were made fresh. It's a cute little place. I'll be back.

    Really good burgers. I didn't give it a five because it's a burger place, not fine dining. But the burgers are five stars!

    The staff and service here are top notch. Our family of 6 did a day trip to the Morehead City area…read morefor the NC Shell Show and stayed for play time so our kids could play and run around at Shevans Park nearby. We stopped by El's after our kids worked up an appetite. We liked the old school drive-in feel and the kids eating in their car seats strapped in with the DVD player and AC on was a really nice touch after all the running. We got a bunch of things off the menu: grilled cheese and nuggets for my 2 younger boys, hamburger and double cheeseburger for my 2 older boys, onion rings, hush puppies and the ever so famous shrimp burgers for my husband and I (hubby got the super shrimp burger). I wouldn't have considered trying the shrimp burger but after reading about how amazing it is, I knew I had to try it. There were a lot of shrimp in the regular burger, and I'm not a coleslaw girly but the coleslaw really worked in the burger. It really did not disappoint and now I am salivating just thinking about it.

    There's nothing like El's…read more El's Drive-In in Morehead City has been a beloved tradition in my family for decades. So while visiting family in Jacksonville, NC, I couldn't resist making the drive to Morehead just to savor the iconic Shrimp Burger -- often duplicated, but never, ever matched. Fresh, delicious, and full of memories. Now I'm back in Atlanta, and let's just say... lunch is feeling a little too ordinary today. I'd do just about anything for another El's Shrimp Burger right now! The best part? I brought a new friends along, and guess what? They loved it. Sharing is caring -- and when it comes to good food and great memories, it's the best kind of love.
