What Kay Dom dislikes about Pop's Raw Bar Restaurant:
Drove over 30 minutes to get oysters crab here. Arrived around 5:30 on Tuesday, they opened at 4. Our group sat out front got settled in.

The food was incredible, the bartender was outstanding, and the live music was a lot of fun. I can't wait to visit again. Thank you for making our anniversary weekend so enjoyable!
Pop's is an excellent dining spot. The food is amazing, and the service is very attentive. It's a longstanding establishment on Hatteras Island that has truly stood the test of time.
The best steamed shrimp I've ever had! We stumbled upon this place one night last year while on vacation, driving around in search of a good meal, and Pop's...
This cozy little spot is perfect for wonderful seafood. We dropped by after spending a morning at the beach. We shared a blackened trigger fish platter, which included some lovely pieces of fish, fries, coleslaw, and hush puppies. We also ordered half a pound of shrimp and some ice-cold beer. Everything was absolutely delicious. It's a nice restaurant with friendly staff.
I visited the restaurant specifically for the raw oysters, and they did not disappoint; they were excellent when paired with the horseradish sauce. However, the rest of the dishes were quite greasy, so I was grateful to have the oysters as a highlight of my meal. The place was bustling and is clearly a favorite among locals.
