About

Outer Banks Boil Company brings the Cajun-style seafood boil format to Avon: shrimp, corn, potatoes, and sausage steamed together in a seasoned bag, then dumped out for a casual, hands-on meal instead of a sit-down dinner. It's the low-country-boil-meets-Cajun-seasoning concept that's spread through coastal towns up and down the East Coast in recent years — order at the counter, grab some napkins, and dig in. This location is the Hatteras Island outpost of a small regional boil company, set up in a plaza space right on NC-12 in Avon.

Good to know

Located directly on NC-12 in Avon, between Rodanthe, Waves, and Salvo to the north and Buxton and Hatteras village to the south.
Price range runs moderate ($$) for the format.
No hours are listed for this location — check the website or call ahead, since seasonal hours are common for businesses on this stretch of Hatteras Island outside the summer peak.
Avon sits along NC-12, the single road connecting all of the Hatteras Island villages within Cape Hatteras National Seashore — a road known to close or wash out during storms, so it's worth checking conditions if you're traveling during hurricane season.

While vacationing in Frisco we decided to get a seafood boil. We got the ben Franklin and it was sooo good that we decided to get it again later in the week and this time got the overboarder. Staff was so friendly and helpful and of course food was delicious. We enjoyed ours soundside.

We had an amazing experience with Outer Banks Boil Company while we were on vacation in Hatteras. We ordered the traditional meal and added crab legs, mussels, clams, a lobster tail, and corn bread. We had a feast, and every single bite was cooked to perfection. The food was fresh, flavorful, and plentiful. There were 12 of us, and we ate everything. What truly made the experience exceptional was Anthony who came to the house and cooked for our group. He was so friendly, fun, and completely fit right in with our family vibe from the moment he arrived. If you are visiting the Hatteras area I can’t recommend this company enough. Everything was outstanding and we now have so many great memories from this trip. Thank you so much Anthony, for making our vacation even more special

We had a seafood boil in memory of my brother who passed last year….something he always wanted to do. Ayden was wonderful. The food was delicious and he even cleaned up our mess afterwards!

Great customer service, got the kit with everything inside and did it in our apartment, it turned out fantastic! For new customers: just be aware that you can’t get the boil other there, you’ll need to cook it at home, I initially made that wrong assumption
