Cafe Pamlico’s mission is to provide a world class dining experience through exceptional food, outstanding detail oriented service, an inspired wine and cocktail program, and gracious attentive Southern hospitality. Our menu changes frequently in accordance with the fresh ingredients our chefs discover on the island, most notably the fresh local seafood we feature. The fish we serve each evening i

s frequently taken from the nets of friends that very morning. We are committed to supporting local farmers and artisan food producers first, sustainable resources second, and organic third. The Cafe serves elegant gourmet dinners prepared by our world class chefs from four to seven nights each week, depending on season. Dinner reservations are highly recommended, as the restaurant is often filled to capacity by reservation. We are open to the public every morning for our famous casually elegant breakfasts, called “Best on the Outer Banks” by National Geographic Traveler. Cafe Pamlico is committed to extending gracious hospitality beyond the walls of our restaurant and into the community. We manage our organization in an ecologically sensitive and economically sustainable manner, driven by genuine concern for our environment and the jobs we create in our community, and always in accordance with the customer satisfaction policies of our business model. We invite you to learn more about Cafe Pamlico by downloading our current brochure, or by getting in touch with us. Whether dining in one of our intimate well appointed dining rooms, at our elegant copper topped bar, or al fresco on one of our soundfront decks, you will experience exceptional food and service which the Times of London described as “Fabulous” while surrounded by the natural beauty and grandeur of the Pamlico Sound and the Cape Hatteras National Seashore.

One of our senior chefs has pressing family issues which requires him unexpectedly to return home at the end of this month. We are therefore seeking one of three things:

- experienced chefs looking to pick up a few shifts a week in September and October as a member of our top flight BOH crew.

- an experienced chef looking for a home in our community. Year round housing is available for the right candidate.

- a young person looking to develop a career in our community, ready to be trained as a professional chef. Year round housing is available for the right candidate.

Please email a resume to [email protected], stop by The Inn on Pamlico Sound for an application, or call the Inn at 252-995-7030.
