There's a couple tables and a lounge area inside and it looks like an area set up for live music. They don't have a kitchen but you can buy cheese, meat, olives, pretzels, etc and you can bring your own food. The flights are reasonably priced, prices are clearly outlined, and the pours are heavy. Will definitely come back here when I am back in the area.

Wine and beer, pasta, sauces, teas, jams, glassware, olives, crackers, cheese, chocolate.......a foodies dream. After about 25 minutes we were sat. Our waitress was friendly, knowledgeable and ready to work. She was busy with inside and outside tables. We started with the whipped goat cheese and fig jam. Delicious!! They now sell it To Go in the store part. I got the Hot Honey BLT and my friend got the House Grilled Cheese Panini. We both got house salads. Loved that the house salad came with feta cheese. Yes, please. Both sandwiches were good but I really liked the Hot Honey BLT. The Grilled cheese panini was lacking something. I would definitely go back and would recommend.....especially to my foodie friends. Oh....they also have a brunch menu and a kids menu. And it looks like the online menu on the website is not up to date as of October 2026.

Fish Heads is a true oceanfront dining experience since you're actually dining out on the pier. The…read morewait can be long, especially with larger groups. I've been here with a party of 12 before, and we definitely waited a while, but I was impressed that they were able to accommodate a group that size. This time, I was with a party of two and we were seated pretty quickly. My one complaint about the wait system is that they announce when your table is ready, but if you're out of earshot, you'll miss it. It would be nice if they used a text, call, or buzzer system so you could walk down to the beach while you wait. Part of the pier seating is covered, but the farther you go out, the more exposed you are. We were seated near the end, so it was hot in the direct sun and very windy. But that comes with the territory, and the views make it worth it. There are also plenty of birds hoping you'll share your fries with them, which is both expected and pretty funny. We each ordered a Pain Killer. It was good at first, but it quickly became watered down, and I didn't think it was worth $10. We also got the nachos, but the price adds up quickly once you start adding toppings. Most of the menu is very à la carte. The prices seem reasonable at first, but sides and toppings can add up fast. The burgers don't come with fries, for example. We both got the West Coast Burger. It was good, but nothing particularly memorable. Service was attentive and generally friendly. Overall, Fish Heads is one of the better dining options in the area. The pier setting and views really make the experience unique. I enjoy coming here and will likely be back.

We were unofficially judging grilled cheese and mac and cheese all week, and this one absolutely held its own. I ordered the Smash Burger Pizza, and I was skeptical until the first bite. It somehow captures all the flavors of a really good smash burger, complete with the tangy "special sauce" flavor, pickles, beef, cheese, and onions, but on a wood-fired pizza crust. It sounds a little ridiculous on paper. It works. I also accidentally ordered one of their cannabis-infused cocktails because I apparently skipped over an important word on the menu. It did exactly what it promised without sending me into another dimension, which was appreciated. The only downside was that I spent the rest of the evening happily eating leftover Smash Burger Pizza and wondering why anyone would order anything else. The atmosphere was laid back, the service was friendly, and we'll always say anything positive about anyone who helps take care of our sweet little one. We'd happily come back the next time we're in Manteo. Don't let the current rating scare you away. We almost did, and we'd have missed out on one of our favorite meals of the trip.
