Watermen’s Bar & Grill — Waterfront Dining on the Pamlico Sound

About Watermen’s Bar & Grill

Watermen’s Bar & Grill serves breakfast, lunch, and dinner 7 days a week, along with the best coffee, beers, wines and mixed drinks in the area. This Winter, the restaurant space will receive an entirely new re-fit featuring tile floors, wood ceilings, granite bar tops, and breathtaking views of the Pamlico Sound. Expanded indoor seating and an outdoor bar area are designed to enhance the experience every day.

The refreshed Watermen’s Bar & Grill will center its food and service on the waterfront setting, pairing that experience with delicious and healthy food choices in a fun, inviting atmosphere. Live music is also returning to the waterfront stage through the Sky Blue Summer Concert Series sponsored by Carolina Brewery, beginning every year in April.
