A casual waterfront bar and tap shack in Avon on Hatteras Island, Howards delivers cold craft beers and the laid-back, windswept character of the Outer Banks’ most wild and most remote barrier island stretch. Hatteras Island’s combination of legendary surf breaks, the Cape Hatteras Lighthouse, and the untouched National Seashore character that surrounds it creates a particular Outer Banks energy — more elemental and more genuine than the northern beaches — and Howards captures it with cold taps and an honest bar format.
