"Fish Heads is an open-air bar located right on the Outer Banks Fishing Pier, so you can eat your tacos or coconut shrimp with a perfect view of the waves. The menu has plenty of great appetizers like Southwest egg rolls and chili cheese fries that pair excellently with their long tap list, and they also have a Happy Hour shrimp special that you should split with a group of friends. This bar is totally outdoors with just a few covered tables, so make sure to check the weather forecast before you head out, unless you want to risk getting your fries (and everything else) wet.

Amazing atmosphere. One of our favorite places to have lunch every year. The happy hour shrimp and fish tacos are outstanding. Can’t beat the ocean breeze and cold beer! The staff are excellent and friendly. Highly recommended Fish Heads. FYI…Parking can be difficult at times, so we walk.

Fish Heads remains the best bar and grill in OBX. The food is incredible and very reasonably priced. Best Tuna bites I have ever had, and it's really hard to beat their happy hour deal shrimp buckets! For beer lovers, they have the widest selection of craft beer I've seen at a beach bar. On top of that, they have live music most nights and a great staff. If you get there and have to wait, don't worry, there is a side bar right outside the main entrance so you can order select beers and drinks while you wait! It is a quintessential must stop every year.

Best waterfront bar atmosphere. Food ranges from simple (hotdogs) to delicious (medium rare ahi sandwich). Huge draft selection—no hard liquor on premises. Beautiful day, the water was amazing! As usual, service was great. Note: they are closed Monday/Tuesday.

Ok, the food was ok. Hamburger was a frozen variety. Not bad but not fresh. The fries were some of the best I've had in awhile. Someone in that kitchen knows what to do to potatoes. My wife's bbq nachos would have been better if all the chesse hadn't been on the bottom of the plate. Again they weren't bad, just all the chesse made the bottom chips soggy. The waitress was good. It should be noted that we ate during a downpour. She still checked on us regularly. THE highlight of this place is being able to eat while looking out over the ocean. It is the coollest thing. Great views. It makes this place worth a try.

This is the spot to dine in when you're in Nags Head NC. The staff is super helpful and makes the experience wonderful. As if that wasn't enough, the views are amazing, and the food deserves 10 stars. I will be back. This one is definitely on my restaurant list.

Apps, steamed shrimp and pier nachos were both delicious. Blackened shrimp tacos were the best (larger than expected and loaded with shrimp), great fries, burgers, etc. Great views and atmosphere.

Fun atmosphere and beautiful oceanic views. Food and service were both top-notch! Note when reading the menu to read the ‘fine print’ at the bottom. You are given an option to add $20 to your tab for ‘a round of drinks for the back of the house’! After the great meal and service we received, we couldn’t pass up this opportunity to show our gratitude. Already looking forward to our next visit when visiting OBX!

Good food, decent prices for the large portions. Had Excellent fish packed tacos, good value nachos, and while not drinking did appreciate the huge draft beer selection available.
