A tropical grill and bar bringing tiki-bar energy to N Croatan Highway in Kitty Hawk
Barefoot Bernie's Tropical Grill & Bar sits right on N Croatan Highway in Kitty Hawk, serving a casual, tropical-themed menu of grill fare and drinks with a laid-back, beachy vibe. It's a straightforward stop for a burger and a cold drink without the fuss, right along the main road through town.
Categorized as a Brewery & Bar, the spot pairs grill-style food — burgers, sandwiches, and bar plates — with a full drink menu of cocktails, draft beer, and tropical mixed drinks. Price point runs moderate, fitting for a casual lunch or an easygoing dinner without a special occasion attached.
It's open for lunch and dinner every day of the week, staying open a bit later on Friday and Saturday nights. Being right on N Croatan Highway — the inland route (US-158) running through Kitty Hawk — makes it simple to reach by car, with parking on site and no need to circle for street parking closer to the ocean. It sits within easy reach of Kitty Hawk's other restaurants and shops, and isn't far from Jockey's Ridge or the Wright Brothers National Memorial for anyone stringing together a day of sightseeing with a meal.

The male bartender was miserable and barely did his job while the female bartender was running in circles. Ive been a bartender and server for 20 years. He seemed so uninterested in his job and showed no team work. I came here because I was tlk it's a great bar especially for steeler games. We didn't even stay long enough for the game to start. It is crazy to think how someone's vibes just make the entire atmosphere feel off.

We ordered takeout. Food was pretty good. I wish my fish sandwich wasn't overcooked but it was tasty. My family all ate their meals with no major complaints.

1st time in OBX & we found this wonderful place. Food was great! Atmosphere was great! Prices were great too! Definitely will be back again when we are OBX.

Over cooked and simply unseasoned. I’ve never had such a disgusting steak before and for $32, I’m absolutely appalled.
