Lost Colony Tavern / The Nag & DoePosts

Fresh local fish is something we pride ourselves on here at Lost Colony Tavern, and we have some delicious options for you all week through Labor Day Weekend! For this week’s Local Catch Fish ‘n Chips, you have the option of fresh Dolphinfish (mahi-mahi) or fresh Swordfish, both plucked from the sea this morning and provided to us by our pals at Etheridge Seafood at the Port of Wanchese on the south end of the island, just eight minutes’ drive from the restaurant. Both selections are absolutely delicious, and you’ll rarely ever taste a fresher dish o’ fish. Idalia be damned…we will carry on through all week and weekend here in Downtown Manteo!

Due to the countless shipwrecks along the North Carolina coast, the Outer Banks has become known as “The Graveyard of the Atlantic.” Though we now know that the majority of these shipwrecks were due to running aground on the shallow shoals surrounding the barrier islands, previous generations had often attributed these wrecks to two entities: Poseidon and The Kraken.

Lots of good voodoo goes into our Tavern Wings, and then added to that your choice of sauce — Anchor Buffalo, Pineapple Teriyaki, Tikka Masala, Thai Chili, Jamaican Jerk or Sweet Heat BBQ — we’re certain that after one taste you’ll understand why our wings have become so popular with locals and visitors alike. Drop by soon and give ‘em a try!
