Then again, you’re in the Outer Banks, so between the donuts and the biscuits, you’re all set for great breakfast! Opt between plain or cheese biscuits, but definitely choose the fried chicken biscuit. The name comes from the rack of porn magazines found in most convenience stores. Perhaps more popular for their merchandising, Biscuits N’ Porn still manages to sell pretty darn good biscuits. Try their coffee, provided by local Dynamite Roasting Company. I recommend the Grey Beard Biscuit, combining fried green tomatoes and fried chicken strips, which was a huge mouthful. You can even take home a bag of their mix to replicate their biscuits at home. Decorated in rustic country kitchen decor, the inside of the Blue Ridge Biscuit Company invites guests to enjoy their meal in the comfort of home.

I highly recommend taking your biscuit to the Whirligig Park, where you can either sit at a table or sit on their park benches while enjoying this tasty treat. After waiting 20 minutes in line, my kind server recommended Flo’s pork tenderloin with egg and cheese - a recommendation which I pass along! This has to be the flakiest biscuit and tender tenderloin I’ve ever had. Their cathead biscuits – so-called because they’re the size of a cat’s head, start as a hoop cheese biscuit sold for only $2, with guests adding their toppings. This cash-only business (there’s an ATM there but access involves dodging the fast-moving line of cars) provides three ways to enjoy their delicious treats – walk up, sit down, or drive-thru (the most popular). Don’t let Flo’s Kitchen lack of an internet presence fool you – their low-tech skills pay off in the kitchen.
