Big Oak Drive IN

I had a chance to hit the Big Oak Drive In in Salter Path, NC recently.

The Big Oak calls itself "Home of the Best Shrimpburger on North Carolina's Crystal Coast".









I had the shrimp burger and onion rings. The shrimp burger was good, but not as good as El's in Morehead. El's shrimp were bigger (although Big Oak's were plentiful) and it was just a better burger (even after the slaw was added). The big Oak does get the nod for the onion rings. While not homemade they were cooked quite well. Also at the Big Oak you can walk to the beach and eat.

Food advantage El's
Location advantage Big Oak
