Drew = LEGEND. If you're anywhere near Emerald Isle and you're not doing a seafood boil with Outer Banks Boil Company, you're doing vacation wrong. And if you're lucky enough to get Drew running your boil? Prepare for one of the best dining experiences of your life. Drew isn't just a cook -- the man is a full-blown experience curator. From the second he rolled up, you could tell this guy knew exactly what he was doing. Cool, confident, professional -- and hilarious. He had our whole group laughing and hyped up before the food even hit the pot. The setup was smooth, the boil was perfection (every Lobster tail, shrimp, crab leg, scallop, sausage, potato, and ear of corn cooked to absolute glory), and Drew walked us through the whole thing like a seafood sommelier meets Southern host with a side of Top Gun energy. Seriously, dude was a boss. What made it even better? He treated us like family. You could tell he loves what he does and takes pride in making sure your night is unforgettable. He nailed it. 10/10 experience Food was insane Vibe was top tier Drew made it all happen Thanks Drew -- you turned a great meal into a core memory. Can't wait to come back! read more

If you're in Corolla, you've got to get some seafood from the OBBC! We love that we can call day of since we end up staying later at the beach than we plan... Great portions per person and plenty of sides and options to make for the family. Service was so friendly and they give you awesome boil pots to keep. You can even add in a table cloth to keep your boil just the right amount of messy. read more

Outer Banks Boil Co came over to do a boil for my great aunts 80th surprise party & everything was amazing! We added crab legs & I highly recommend it! Their seasoning is 10x better than old bay. Drew was super friendly, easy to talk to & everything was perfectly cooked! Can't wait to do it again soon! read more

We hired the outer banks boil company for my fiancé's birthday dinner with friends and had an amazing time! Food was delicious, and Will (our chef) was very friendly and did an incredible job. Being able to have affordable catering in your own home is a big plus. Recommend adding on the mussels/clams and bbq! 10/10 would recommend, and looking forward to using them again read more

This was definitely the best meal we had during our Emerald Isle vacation! Captain Kelly- a very friendly and personable guy- came to our vacation rental home and cooked everything outside, then brought it inside (and up three flights of steps!) for us to enjoy. He explained where each item was sourced from- all local, fresh, and delicious. The seasoning was just right- not too spicy for those who don't like spice, but had a great flavor. My personal favorites were the crab legs and the corn, but I enjoyed everything! When we were done, Capt Kelly didn't even let us clean up our plates- he cleaned up the whole table. Bonus points for the fact that the entire meal was gluten-free for the person in our group with Celiac. I'd highly recommend this business if you're staying on Emerald Isle! read more

Outer Banks Boil Company - Captain Kelly dumping out the seafood boil on our table- it smelled amazing at this point! - Seafood Near Me - Emerald Isle, North Carolina

Seriously the best boil I've ever been to. Highly highly recommend. Drew was so laid back talked a bit about the company, the food, the sauces, the hospitality. No need to look any further for your future boil needs. read more

Wonderful service! Full set up, service and clean up for a reasonable price! Chase was our server and he was personable and prompt! Food was amazing can't go wrong with outer banks boil! read more

You get A LOT of food in the standard boil. It comes with the pot and all the tools you need and it was delicious. My only complaint is the expectation to tip 20% which is a lot when you are paying $300+ - I'm not deducting a star because ultimately it's on me for paying it rather than being uncomfortable and saying that handing me food and explaining how to cook it is worth $10 not $70. read more

This was WELL WORTH the money!! We will 100% doing this every year when we come down! We got the crab pot with extra crab legs, we had SIX bunches!! The seasoning was spot on. The food was FRESH and it was super easy to prepare ourselves at home. Whole family enjoyed it!! So glad we took the chance on this!! We highly recommend!! read more

Not only was the food amazing but Captain Kelly was the best! We got the seafood boil, which the shrimp and sausage was our crowd favorite. Added crab legs and scallops, sooooo good. For the non-seafood eaters, the pulled pork and muffins were great!!! read more

The perfect dinner to bring home at the beach! I would highly recommend, especially for big groups!

This place was awesome. Where has this been my whole life? Dinner came in its own pot and just needed to be boiled/steamed. So simple even I can figure it out. Food was delicious and served my family with plenty to spare read more

We stayed at a nearby RV park for the weekend and decided to find some seafood on the way back from the beach. We found this place on a whim via google and ordered a to-go pot. Super easy to cook at home or a campground if you have a way to boil water at medium heat, (we used a tailgate BBQ) took about 45 min total to prepare. They gave us a quick walk through on the included cooking instructions and were super helpful. it was absolutely amazing. Good quality seafood (especially the shrimp), and will definitely be back the next time we're in town! read more

A unique dinner option. We got the two person boil with 2 ears of corn cut in half and 10 pieces of sausage. 1 pound of shrimp and about two potatoes cut into pieces. We added some locally purchased scallops and crab legs which made the volume adequate. Kind of thin on quantity! $52 for two ‍. The folks at the store were professional and kind with a clean facility. read more

Amazing food, DELICIOUS!!! They even accommodated a vegan option for me. Definitely worth popping in there and grabbing something to eat!

Atmosphere was wonderful, and the food was superb. Menu has lots of variety that will please about anyone..

I brought a pot back to VA and cooked it according to the directions and it was fun and perfect! The pot was packed carefully with all the prep done so after traveling it was wonderful. Today I had their NC bbq, slaw and corn muffins and it was so good! Great location and amazing staff! I even got my pic on their wall! Great place for families or just 2! read more
