The Froggy Dog

Dan Limbacher

We stopped by around 2:30 pm on a Saturday while waiting for our beach house to be ready. The wait was a little longer than estimated, but that was to be expected since we had our dog with us and were waiting for a patio table (which are limited). Service and food was great, and prices were fair. They even provided a bowl of water for our dog. We would definitely consider coming back.

Froggy Dog has always been one of our favorite stops when we're on Hatteras and this year was no exception. We made it in time for Sunday brunch and everything was so good! Our server Liza took excellent care of us, and Dani the bartender mixes one of the best Bloody Marys I've ever had.

From the outside, this place looks like a fairly typical seaside bar and restaurant. It's easily visible from the highway and it has plenty of gravel parking. Once you get inside, however, it is an impressively large and well thought out space. It has different kinds of seating for all circumstances, including a nice outdoor seating area. Our server was cheerful, proactive and welcoming. I had lunch there, so I ate from the lunch menu. The appetizer I chose was loaded baked potato skins, and they were absolutely delicious with a generous portion size. These were the highlight for me. I followed those up with what they call an "Albatross Burger", which was a ludicrously enormous beef behemoth consisting of two half-pound beef patties in a triple-deck bun, stuffed with tons of bacon and cheese, and topped with a fried egg and two delicious onion rings. It came with those crispy fries that are popular now. Honestly, it was enormous and delicious, although I would argue the burgers were a teeny bit dry and in need of more seasoning. If you are down in the Avon area of the Outer Banks, this place is definitely worth stopping by.

We passed The Froggy Dog so many times during our week stay on Hatteras Island. We made a decision to have dinner on our last night and we were so glad we did. The restaurant is huge and because of the very unseasonably warm weather after Christmas, all the outdoor seating were taken. We were glad the restaurant had so many dining patrons. The interior of the restaurant is absolutely spacious and well decorated. We were greeted and quickly seated. Our server Konstance was so delightful. She brought our drinks, told us the specials, and gave her recommendations. I always appreciate servers who will give recommendations because they have tried the food and know what’s good. Our appetizer of Cannonball Shrimp was an ample amount of fried shrimp drenched in a Sriracha mayo sauce. It was crunch, spicy, and delicious. The husband got the crab cake dinner which to quote him “is so crabby”. I opted for the Atlantic Grilled Salmon on a bed of spinach and and wild mushrooms. To say it was delicious is an understatement. The two pieces of salmon were juicy, flavorful, and perfectly grilled. Our week of relaxation ended with a great seafood meal at The Froggy Dog because everything from the atmosphere to the service to the food was perfect.
