About

Bob's Grill OBX sits on Croatan Highway (US-158) through Kill Devil Hills, right in the northern Outer Banks' main commercial strip. It's an early-hours operation — open daily from 7 a.m. to 1 p.m., seven days a week — making it a straightforward stop for breakfast or an early lunch before the beach day gets going.

As the name suggests, this is grill-style cooking: the kind of menu built around breakfast plates, burgers, and sandwiches rather than a late dinner service, priced in the moderate ($$) range. The consistent 7-to-1 schedule every day of the week means no guessing about hours during peak season, useful on a stretch of Croatan Highway where beach traffic can make timing matter. It's an easy stop for anyone staying nearby in Kill Devil Hills, or passing through on the way to Jockey's Ridge or the beach.

For current menu details or to confirm hours before visiting — especially outside peak season — call (252) 441-0707 or check the restaurant's website.

We're on vacation! Kill Devil Hills, Outer Banks, NC. First order of the day and we happened by this best of the best about 1.5 miles from our condo. Bob's Grill OBX. Atmosphere is warm, welcoming and super friendly! Earlene was our very good waitress. Very friendly and on top of things. Food was served hot, quickly and plentiful! Us New Englanders are not used to seeing grits and grouper and shrimp on a breakfast menu. Open 7:00 a.m. till 1:00 p.m. 7 days/week. Motto is "Eat and get the hell out!" We highly recommend and told them we'll be back. GO!

The waiter told us to get the hell out!!!! This place is a nice cozy spot next to the ocean. The food is good and a nice spot for breakfast and if u don't like breakfast they have lunch all day too!

Family came for breakfast.. my brother loves this place for the scrapple.. my BLT was not good"" it looked better than it tasted, the bacon was chewy hard to chew and just not good " the fries were good.."" granddaughter liked her pancake.. I like to support hometown restaurants and I've stopped here several times .. visits have been a hit or miss but this past year more of a Miss"" the woman" the server should be in the back and not working with the public.. customer service stunk. Yes"" it was busy with locals and tourist so maybe she was overstretched so that I understand but a bad attitude and snapping at a very polite request for napkins and silverware should not be a problem..and I don't think wanting a refill on my cup of coffee should be a imposition"" and when you look like you could bite a head a off" ( my 8yr old granddaughter was scared of you because of your mean attitude)" shame on you!! it takes away from enjoying time with my family.. this is not the 1st time the service stunk which will be why I won't bother returning ..

Food and service was great. I had a simple BLT and one of their cinnamon rolls. BLT was great, roll was so-so - a bit heavy bread -had to cut with a knife. Rest of the family loved their meals food. We hit a slower time which made service fast. Be sure to stop, then get the hell out. Our server was great. She had this whole Wynona Rider voice about her (Beetlejuice). Very pleasant.
