Supporting the Outer Banks Culinary Community

The Outer Banks Restaurant Association (OBRA) brings together local restaurants, chefs, hospitality businesses, and industry partners to celebrate and strengthen our region’s culinary community.

We represents a diverse and exceptionally talented community famous for creativity and warm southern hospitality. As an association, our goals are many but focus on promoting the (formerly) best-kept secret about The Outer Banks, our fantastic dining options.

Our beautiful strip of sand has always been a mecca for beach-goers and nature enthusiasts, but our gifted chefs and inspired entrepreneurs are showing our visitors – one plate at a time – that our culinary creations are worth the trip on their own!
