Outer Banks Pizza Restaurants

Based at Hotel Manteo, Firetender Stone-Oven Cooking & Bar is one of Manteo's most popular restaurants and gathering spots. The setting is moody and cosmopolitan, with dark walls and sophisticated details, yet it's entirely comfortable and cozy, the perfect place for lingering at the bar, intimate dining and gathering with friends. The restaurant is centered around its custom-built stone oven, the source of its incredible stone-oven pizzas. Seating is available at the pizza bar, where you can watch the chefs prepare these specialty delights. The menu also includes chef-prepared small plates, entrees, hearth-fired Skillets (meals served in a cast-iron skillet), kids' offerings and desserts. Firetender has a full bar and is proud to be a taproom for Weeping Radish Brewery, which originated in Manteo and was the first microbrewery in North Carolina. Firetender is open six nights a week for dinner and also serves Sunday brunch with a specially curated menu. Seating is available indoors or outdoors. Free delivery and takeout are available. Above Firetender is a private event space called Embers Room, which can accommodate up to 60 people in an upscale setting.

Pizzazz is a pizza favorite on the Outer Banks. They’ve been around since 1986 because they make consistently great pizza with generous toppings and the service is friendly. Choose from gourmet menu creations or stick with the traditional. Pizzazz also makes hot subs, salads and wings. You can eat in for lunch or dinner or have your pizza delivered. Call for off-season hours. And, if you're driving to the Outer Banks from the north, check out their location in Grandy on the Currituck mainland.

Whalehead Brewery in Corolla stands out as not only a woman- and veteran-owned brewery, but also as a place to enjoy great full-flavored beers and amazing brick-oven pizzas with people who love the Northern Outer Banks. Owner Christin Crowley founded the brewery after 22 years in the Navy. During her career she traveled around tasting the beers of the world, and after retirement she decided to make her own beers in her favorite vacation town of Corolla. Her popular 5-barrel brewhouse, open since 2023, includes a self-pour tap wall, a welcoming industrial-style taproom and a beautiful mosaic tile pizza oven. In addition to brick-oven pizzas, the restaurant serves delicious shareables, soups, salads and more. This is a fun gathering spot in Corolla, with bingo, trivia and live music weekly and frequent community fundraisers and special events.
