Spanky's Grille

Incredible. Don't miss. Looks like trash, food like whoa, best fried flounder sandwich ever

We were exploring with our dog and stopped by for lunch. It was raining on and off throughout the day so I was so happy they had tables on a covered porch(3) and not just umbrellas. Although it did look like they had a couple of those in the back. The food prices are extremely reasonable for this area. The fried catfish, apparently a local favorite, was Huge. The clam basket was good. It came with plenty of fries and hush puppies but I wish there was a few more clam strips.

First and foremost, friendliest staff EVER!!!!! Secondly, the food was fantastic! Not just the Viking challenge burger that my husband conquered, but also the Voodoo spicy burger my brother-in-law had, the BBQ plate my mother-in-law enjoyed, the chicken fingers my nephew had, aaaaaand the cheeseburger I enjoyed! Last, the prices are unheard of!!!!! Deliacious, friendly, affordable, oh, and super clean, good-smelling restrooms!!!! Thank you, Spanky's team, from New Jersey and Nevada!!!!!!

Not only is the food great, the service is top notch. There is always a smile on every employee no matter when you go in. Love the ambiance, what a fun place!Anything we ask cooked a special way it is spot on.

Absolutely delicious crab cake sandwich! Awesome prices and friendly service! You can't go wrong!

We loved the whole experience. The food is good, the price is great and the cashier / owner I think was awesome. Definitely a spot to go.

The food quality to price point ratio is unmatched on the obx. The customer service is unwavering from entrance to exit. Mr spankys family business model is a rare jewel in our world today. We love this unique spot in Kitty Hawk!

Website advertises and shows a big delicious picture of Footlong Hotdogs. Drove an hour to get one (footlong fanatic). Waited in line to order--- was told "We don't have footlongs anymore!!". stopped serving them a while ago...didn't change the website menu or pictures. All 6 of us left and ate elsewhere. NEVER to return.

Hot diggity dog!! As we cruised into OBX, we spotted this little joint and decided to check it out. We were hankering for some "fast food" but didn't want to go to a chain. What a pleasant welcome we received from the owner who also runs the register. We ordered a corn dog (yum) and a foot long hotdog with fries! I chose a root beer because, come on, what drink goes better with hotdogs!! The beverages are self-serve, and the condiments are available near the beverage station, and ketchup's on the table! The order came out fairly quickly and we were served by a jovial surfer dude! We both ate for $11 which was pretty amazing!Although this place isn't fancy, (plastic baskets for your plates) it was "spanking" clean and cute. It was a bit retro and we felt like we were in a '50's soda shop! I love that there are paper towels at each table so you do t have to ask the servers for extra napkins! They serve more than hotdogs... burgers, sandwiches, etc. I'd definitely return here next time I'm in OBX!

Spanky's Grille was a wonderful find for us. The OBX was not on our road trip itinerary. It was a spur of the moment decision. With the help of Yelp, we had found a very good place for lunch. Spanky's is a non chain diner/restaurant serving up good burgers and sandwiches at great prices. We ordered a flounder sandwich for my wife, a popcorn shrimp for the daughter, and a double meat burger for me. Service was wonderful. I had a nice conversation with the owner who was taking the orders. He was a friendly and nice guy. Everything we ordered was cooked to order and tasted tasted great.
