A no-frills Duck Road bar and grill for pub food and a cold beer
Roadside Bar & Grill sits right on Duck Road, a straightforward, no-fuss bar and grill in a town better known for its soundside boardwalk and boutique shops. It's the kind of casual stop where the draw is a cold beer and solid pub food rather than a scene — a place to grab a burger and settle in without dressing up for it.
The $$ price point puts it in line with other casual dining around Duck, and weekday hours run from 11am to 9pm, making it a solid option for a late lunch or dinner after a day at the beach or exploring Corolla's historic district a few miles up the road. Duck's compact, walkable layout makes it easy to pair a stop here with browsing the shops along Duck Road or a walk out to the soundside boardwalk. There's no website listed, so a quick call ahead is the best way to confirm current hours, particularly on weekends.

we sat on the front porch with our 1.5 year old and dog. the kids grilled cheese was a huge hit. the pork chop was my husbands favorite meal we had while we were in the outer banks and still talks about it almost daily 3 weeks later! I had the duck brie lt and it was extremely delicious as well. we will definitely be back next time we're on vacation!

We really enjoyed this place. We had the two fish specials and both were really good. Caesar salad was delicious. Good beer selection. Great service. Good overall experience. I would definitely recommend this place.

We went here right before a quick storm. The waitress was nice enough to rush us in right before it hit and sat us at the bar. The Tatonka burger is hands down one of the best burgers I've had. Will Def be going back next season

Probably our best meal during our week long family vacation! All 16 of us (teens/20s, parents and grandparents) were able to sit on the patio in two tables of 8. The food was to die for! Clam chowder was delicious! We had the shrimp & pine nuts (soo good), pork chops (huge portion and amazing), lobster ravioli special (yum!) and the yellow fin special (literally the best thing we ate all week!) Kids also had the burger and duck dynasty. All plates were cleaned and bellies were full! Loved it ALL.

Love this restaurant! While I loved my fish, my husband had the crab cakes. I had a bite and needed to go back the next night so I could order my own! They are amazing and loaded with crab! I love a good crab cake and these are tops!
