About this business
CLOSED FOR THE SEASON, Thank you for another great summer! An Outer Banks tradition, John's has been a favorite with locals and vacationers since 1977! Serving Fresh Tuna and Fried Dolphin served with homemade tartar sauce or fresh made cocktail sauce. Also available many flavor of malt, fresh fruit milkshake and other tasty ice cream treats. John's gives free ice cream to dogs, horses, rabbits, skunks and any other type of pet that you would bring to John's would earn you a "puppy cup."

RecommendedJohn’s drive in is the only place we think of when the kids ask for thick shakes... everyone there including John himself are always super friendly and their artistry with ice cream, chocolate syrup and a blender guarantees that mommy and daddy are going to have at least 20 minutes of silence! Try the dolphin boat or any of the sandwiches... you will not be disappointed or hungry!
Exceptional place! Have been eating here for years and it just as good as the first time. Dolphin boats are perfect & chocolate peanut butter shakes are to die for 🥰 if you haven’t been to this little gem your definitely missing out ..
Been waiting for so long to get a shake and fried okra from Johns. Absolutely wonderful! Well worth the trip and the wait.
Awesome lunch on a beautiful day! Thanks John Tice ❤️🎶
We love John's Drive In! All the food is GREAT and the shakes are the BEST ON THE BEACH! Locals LOVE THIS PLACE! Proud to say WE ATE THERE TODAY! A much welcome treat after being away for 2 months!
