Where to Eat? Blackbeards!

Blackbeards' was opened in the late spring of 1978 with the idea, "If you can make and serve a good burger and a cold beer, you might do enough business to be able to live in a beach town."

After a quick remodel of a 2/2 beach house and the addition of a deck, the opening was in June with 24 chairs and 4 barstools inside, and seating for about the same outside on an open deck. Even before the opening a volleyball court had been installed in the sand lot next door and many idle hours were spent there the first year.

Three years later the confluence of hurricane Allen, the dismantling of an old building and a new found determination, the first steps were taken towards the restaurant of today. Major additions took place next in 1986, then again in 1990 with the final addition of the outside patio in 1992.

The menu, like the restaurant, grew through the years from burgers, salads, and sandwiches, to daily lunch specials, and on to seafood platters. Today you will find the chalk board specials are no longer on actual chalk boards either, but on lighted boards with the featured dinners.
