🌿☀️ If you’re cruising around the Outer Banks looking for a cozy little spot to grab a chill brunch, The Saltbox Café is where it’s at. Tucked just off the beaten path on Colington Road in Kill Devil Hills [KDH to the locals], this charming cottage-style café is a local fave—and it totally delivers for plant-based brunch lovers, too.


🥞 What’s on the Vegan Brunch Menu?

Saltbox might not have a huge vegan menu, but what they do have is super thoughtful and really tasty. Whether you're all about that plant-based life or just looking for something light before hitting the beach, they've got some yummy options waiting for you!


  • Tofu Scramble – Scrambled tofu sautéed with peppers and onions, served with fresh fruit, toast, and veggie sausage. It’s hearty, colorful, and feels like morning fuel done right. My personal favorite - especially paired with a mouth-watering mimosa!

  • Vegan Pancakes – These pancakes are dusted with cocoa and topped with fresh fruit. And don't forget the maple syrup and veggie sausage on the side. So good, you'd forget they’re vegan.

  • Tator Tots - Yes I said it - Tator Tots! Classic comfort food, perfectly crispy, delectably seasoned - these are a must-try.


🍾 Mimosas That Just Hit Different

Brunch without a mimosa? It's not a thing. Saltbox knows how to do the bubbles just right - try the seasonal mimosa, classic mimosa or a bellini. Perfect for sipping while you soak up the slow Sunday vibes.



🌴 Why Saltbox Café is a Must-Hit Spot

  • Hidden Gem Vibes – Tucked away with fewer crowds, attracting locals and OBX regulars.
