🦀 Avon is heading to Nags Head! 🦐

It’s officially Seafood Festival month, and our Avon crew is packing up and heading north for the Outer Banks Seafood Festival on Saturday, October 17.

We’ll be joining our Nags Head crew for a full day of North Carolina seafood, cold drinks, live music, and celebrating the fishermen and coastal communities that keep the good stuff coming.

Find Dirty Dick’s at the Soundside Event Site in Nags Head from 10 AM–6 PM.

See y’all there. 😏

This po’ boy understood the assignment. 🍤😮‍💨

Golden fried shrimp piled high with lettuce, tomato, pickles, and all the good stuff, served up with a mountain of fries because we don’t believe in doing things halfway around here.

One bite and suddenly you’re real quiet at the table.

Come get yourself a Shrimp Po’ Boy at Dirty Dick’s.

Now that’s what we call a well-rounded diet. 😂

A little seafood, a little steak, a little fried goodness, a little something sweet, and somehow we still found room for a drink.

At Dirty Dick’s, the hardest part isn’t finding something you want, it’s figuring out how the heck you’re supposed to choose just one thing.

So don’t. Bring the whole crew and order the table. 😏

Some vacation traditions are worth keeping. 🦀

Maybe it’s the same beach house every year, the same spot on the sand, or that one dinner everybody starts talking about before you even get to the Outer Banks.

We’d be pretty dang honored if Dirty Dick’s was part of yours. ❤️

Bring the family, grab a table, crack some crabs, make a mess, and make us part of the tradition.

Now THIS is what we call a table full of trouble. 🦀🔥

Snow crab legs piled high, fried seafood coming in hot, fries underneath it all… somebody better grab the butter and get to crackin’.

Come hungry, leave happy, and don’t wear anything you’re scared to get a little messy. 😂

That’s how we do seafood at Dirty Dick’s.

Homemade chips so good they honestly deserve their own fan club. 🥔🔥

Crispy. Salty. Golden. Made right here in-house and dangerously easy to keep reaching for.

If you’ve been to Dirty Dick’s and haven’t tried the homemade chips yet, well, we really don’t know what to tell ya. 😂

Do yourself a favor and fix that next time you’re in.
