Description: Bob serves big, cheap breakfasts all year, seven days a week, until 2:30 p.m.—and that’s hard to find around here. The blueberry pancakes are big enough to cover the entire plate. Eggs are made any way you want, and the hash browns flavored with onions and peppers are some of the best around. For lunch a hamburger, tuna steak, or one of several traditional hot and cold sandwiches will fill you. Owner Bob McCoy cooks much of the food himself. A hot lunch special is available every day. You can’t leave town without trying Bob’s No. 1 seller—Philly steak and cheese. Dinners feature the biggest cuts of prime rib on the Outer Banks, Cajun beer batter–dipped shrimp, and fresh mahimahi caught just offshore. The salads are also good. Save room for the hot fudge brownie dessert. Bob’s is closed from 2:30 to 5 p.m. daily, but it’s open for three meals a day every day all year.
