If you are a local or a visitor, Howard’s Pub is a must place! Anytime of the week. Kind friendly! The night we stopped in, there was a kid’s princess birthday party. They were separated from the rest of the guests to not interrupt. The atmosphere is friendly and cheerful!
Friendly and cheerful staff! Good Food! We got the Oysters and a Bloody Mary. A tad harsh on the pocket book, BUT worth it for a celebration! (Was my birthday!)
You get a sense of a hometown at Howard’s.

My friends and I had a fantastic time at this seafood restaurant/bar. The tuna bites were absolutely delicious—perfectly seared and seasoned. The fish of the day was fresh and flavorful. We had a choice between 3 fresh fish. The portion size was just right. I highly recommend the taco salad, which was satisfying with fresh toppings and a crispy shell.
The atmosphere was lively with a fun, laid-back vibe, which made for a great night out. Prices were reasonable for the quality, making it a good spot to enjoy seafood without breaking the bank. We’ll definitely be back!

My wife and I both had the BBQ burger and we both loved them. Friendly staff and attentive service. The collection of personalized license plates all over the walls and rafters held our attention for quite a while. We highly recommend a stop here.

Great fresh food everything we tried was delicious and freshly cooked. The corn and shrimp chowder was to die for my blackened fish was good. I was glad to see fresh cut fries on the menu instead of frozen there were cooked to perfection. Husband had the oyster Rockefeller which he enjoyed along with the conch fritters
Service was great

Always tasty and the atmosphere is definitely more on the pub side. Just a heads up for those who are sensitive to noise.

My family visited this restaurant during the Thanksgiving holidays. The atmosphere in the pub was great and the food was delicious. I had a burger and fries and it was definitely one of the best burgers that I have had. It’s hard to find a great burger nowadays. Too bad it’s on an island that you have to take a ferry to get to. I will definitely visit again and hopefully have another delicious burger. Man, I’m hungry now! I would definitely recommend to anyone.

Great place on the Island! We came over on the ferry from Hatteras so we could see the Ocracoke lighthouse. Ate at Howard’s because it was Sunday night (and that’s about the only place open past 4p on a Sunday) but it did not disappoint. I had the local fish sandwich and a unicycle beer. Great last meal on my vacation.

Great food cleverly disguised as a beach dive bar. Can get ridiculously busy early in day as everyone comes off the ferry and this is literally the first place to eat. Plenty of indoor and outdoor seating. Even in July, we were able to walk in past lots of people waiting for a table and sit at the bar. Had the blackened mahi sandwich with hush puppies. Tartar sauce is obviously homemade and completed the sandwich and then some. Mrs got the shrimp basket with a side of cole slaw that is again obviously homemade. Great food and portions as well great selection of mixed drinks and craft brews. Lunch and drinks little over $60 and no disappointment. As long as I’m in Ocracoke, will be stopping at Howard’s.

Outstanding. We had a party of 15, and Peter our waiter did an excellent job with everything from the drinks at the beginning through the ordering process and delivery of the food. I had the lightly blackened red drum – probably the best piece of fish in I’ve had dining out. Others in our party had similar compliments for their food. Overall, an excellent experience.

The tea was on point, and the Shrimp and Lobster dip was straight-up bussin. The whole place had a really relaxed vibe—easy spot to hang out with the family.
