⛱️ Beach-Side Vibes: Vegan Snacking at Fish Heads Bar & Grill

If you’re cruising through Nags Head and looking for a place where the ocean practically meets your table, Fish Heads Bar & Grill at MP 18.5 is a must-stop. 🌊🍹 Right on the Outer Banks Fishing Pier, this bar-and-grill combo is all about salty air, surfside views, and cold drinks with friends. While the vegan options are slim, the atmosphere makes it worth the stop.

A lively beachside bar with an array of colorful beer taps, offering patrons stunning ocean views as they relax and enjoy their drinks.

🌴 The vibe? Pure Outer Banks. Imagine an open-air bar, sea spray in the breeze, live music in the summer, and that endless ocean backdrop. It’s one of those spots where the view is the main dish — and trust me, it delivers.

🥒 As for food, choices are limited for us vegans. The menu leans heavily toward seafood (as the name suggests), but I went for the hummus with cucumber and pita — and it was actually perfect. Smooth, creamy hummus paired with crisp, fresh cucumbers and warm pita bread made for a light yet satisfying snack. Nothing fancy, but it hit the spot while soaking in that coastal energy.

🍔 There is technically a veggie burger on the menu, but that’s about it for vegan-friendly options. Still, sometimes it’s not about a full feast — it’s about finding a place where you can snack, sip, and savor the setting. And Fish Heads definitely checks that box.

🍹 Pair your hummus plate with a cold drink from their extensive bar, and you’re set for one of the best casual hangs on the pier. Watching the waves roll in while sipping something tropical? That’s peak OBX living.

Ocean views forever from Fish Heads Bar & Grill!

✨ Why Fish Heads Stands Out in OBX

✅ Unbeatable Location: Right on the Outer Banks Fishing Pier — ocean views for days.

✅ Laid-Back Bar Vibe: Cold drinks, friendly bartenders, and live music in the summer.

✅ Vegan Snack Options: Limited, but the hummus + cucumber + pita is fresh and tasty.

✅ Perfect Hangout Spot: Even if you don’t feast, it’s ideal for a casual stop with friends.

✅ Salt Air Therapy: Sometimes it’s not about the food — it’s about the view, the breeze, and the vibe.

🌈 If you’re vegan in OBX, Fish Heads Bar & Grill is worth the stop for the atmosphere alone. Bring your beach hair, grab a hummus plate, sip something cold, and let the pier-side magic do the rest.

See you at MP 18.5 🌊🍹💚
