Outer Bean Juice And Java - Kitty Hawk

Outer Bean is one of our favorites for delicious, healthy, homemade vegan food. We love their freshly pressed juices and smoothies, too! The owner and her daughter are usually behind the counter, and their wonderful creations seem to be a labor of love. Everything we have tried is excellent! We are thrilled to have found this OBX gem. (NOTE: we give this 5 stars; however, per Happy Cow we are only allowed to give 4 stars on a review for places that also serve meat)

What a great find! My husband and I have been to the Outer Bean a few times during our vacation, and we've both been very impressed. This place is super cozy with friendly staff and excellent vegan options. I had the vegan breakfast sandwich and the vegan panini, both of which were fantastic. My husband (not veggie) also really enjoyed his meals and coffee. The juices were also great! Definitely will be back to the Outer Bean on future trips to the area.

This is one of those places where the food and the service come together to create the perfect combination of happiness for the mind and the body. I was in need for some actually good nourishment in the vegan food desert of the outer banks. Outer Bean was perfect for that. I had their soup of the day, which was gluten free, vegan, oil free, and fat free. I also had a meal smoothie that was everything green and lovely. The women who were making everything behind the counter were so friendly and talkative, it was amazing. They were so warm that I could feel the good vibes radiating off them.

The lady behind the counter was very well knowledgeable on what vegan is and let me know what i could eat. Their menu has it clearly stated too. I had the vegetable panni... YUM! My non vegan relatives loved their sandwiches too.

I found this place through Happycow.com and visited on our last day in the OBX (which we now realize was a huge mistake . My husband is not vegan, but he was happy with his chicken panini and the iced tea. BTW, try their iced tea. It's some peach-beet-clove-cinnamon-ginger infusion or something like that and it's DELICIOUS. There were 2 ladies behind the counter when we walked in and both welcomed us immediately. They were very friendly and even made suggestions from their vegan options (which were a lot more than I was expecting in the OBX . I settled on the Kale Salad. And I can't put into words how delicious that was. I think my favorite part was the spicy peanut dressing. It was so refreshing and definitely the healthiest thing I ate on vacation. And it was filling. I also had the Mean Green Juice from the juice bar. It was made to order right in front of me so I got to see everything that went into it. So. Good. It's a bit small but a nice friendly atmosphere. Oh and they have Live Music on Friday nights :
