"Serving island grocery needs in Hatteras, the Village Market Red & White traces its roots back to 1866 (though it was renovated and renamed in 2018) and remains a historic local option for supplies." - Lydia Mansel

Great little grocery. Fresh foods, drinks, snacks and household items you forgot to pack. Nice people. The pre-made sandwiches were exceptionally good. Bought them the night before for an early morning boat trip. Good tasting meat and no skimping. They have mustard and mayo packets if you ask.

Quiet little grocery store. Employees are chill and friendly. Good selection for the secluded area. We didn’t purchase any produce or meat but everything else was reasonably priced.

Really nice workers. A good local feel. For a small place they have everything you need and a huge selection of alcohol is nice. The deli meat was good. Parking can be a bit of an issue is my only complaint. Definitely recommend!

I'm sure this is more of a local grocery store for people who live in the area, but it's a great find if you need to pick up some extra things if you're vacationing in the area. Cute little setup I'm sure this has been around forever. They have fruits, vegetables, meats, beer, drinks pretty much what you would expect a small true grocery store to have. They have a little Deli area and also seem to have daily specials on premade food you can get. Pretty easy in and out spot. While I was there they had someone painting the mural on the side of the building which was pretty cool. I spoke to him for a few minutes and he was a local art teacher at a school. So if you need to get some extra chips, hamburgers for the grill this is a good place to come.

Love this store. Has everything you need and more. Fresh produce. Old time feeling grocery store. If you need an icecream birthday cake they have you covered. Also has any other extras you may need like white choclate for baking or mixers for drinks.

For a mom and pop store this place has a great selection of meat and produce and don't overlook their beer selection also

A piece of history that is still thriving and keeping this island alive. This store is awesome, groceries, beer, meats, frozen food, fresh produce and other items to help make your stay on the island comfortable. Reasonable prices, and just a unique place to visit.

The meat is discolored and looks like it has been bad for days. If you look through you can find.some that is the correct color, but why would you want to eat it. I walked out and refused to purchase anything.
