Manteo has a great restaurant called Full Moon Cafe. Our family loves it! They have a website if you want to check it out.

from TownofManteo.com:

The Town of Manteo wraps around Shallowbag Bay on the eastern side of Roanoke Island, part of North Carolina's Outer Banks.

Activities include Roanoke Island Festival Park, George Washington Creef Boathouse and Roanoke Marshes Lighthouse, part of the North Carolina Maritime Museum.

Each summer, the town welcomes singers, dancers, and actors back to Waterside Theatre, where they perform the nation's oldest outdoor symphonic drama, The Lost Colony.

No matter the weather, there's always something different to do in Manteo, and another reason to return. Maybe there's a concert or art show or nature program that brings you back. First Fridays, Dare Day, July 4, Virginia Dare's Birthday, Halloween, and Christmas are special times in the town for residents and visitors alike.

But often it's the everyday interaction with people that makes you pause, turn back, come again. You might meet an island native who traces his family back four generations. Or then you might meet someone from your own hometown.

What's special about Manteo is that, if you're willing to take a moment of your time to say hello, you may very well make a friend. -Angel Ellis Khoury

Generally it is about 3 miles wide, 14 miles long. Yes there is a great bike path all along Rt 64 from bridge to bridge, about five miles long.
There are quite a few restaurants, some hometown, serving "local" fare, some fancy and upscale.

It's a nice town, but there is no beach. Not sure how many rental houses they have, but there is Pirates Cove Condos and some B&Bs.

I keep seeing pack a picnic lunch on Roanoke Island or get one from Full Moon Cafe. Has anyone done that? Is it pricey? Is it great?
