Clamdigger Restaurant

15SEPT.2023 This is my first visit here with my mate and everything was exceptional. My review is that the service was on an island time pace and they served us with a beautiful attitude and energy. The most best experience I’ve ever had. Robin who took our food order was superb and proficient. This was my experience in the Clam Digger Restaurant and I’ve traveled quite extensively and in super posh and elegant restaurants and laid back super casual restaurants abroad over the many, many years and current travel. The process here is relaxed and NOT rat race hurry up..when one understands that concept then they will appreciate the southern service experience. Until then sit back, relax, and unwind. The Fort Macon Your Own Omelette was prepared well. The provolone cheese could’ve been melted a bit more in order to mesh with my omelette. My mates bagel 🥯 with sausage, egg 🍳, and cheese 🧀 was super delicious. Now the oil needs to be changed due to my crispy rounds or round shaped hash browns tasted disgusting of old greased that has had everything fried in it. Ketchup couldn’t even help them. Great Friday morning breakfast ever. I appreciate the cranberry juice and orange juice mix our drink server prepared for us. The juice needed a little stir in order for the flavors to blend and taste good. It had a metal taste(probably the juices came out of metal cans).Exceptional customer service experience all around.

During our stay at the Inn at Pine Knolls, we dined twice for breakfast at their on-site restaurant. Despite clearly being short-staffed, the service we received on both occasions was truly exceptional. The waitresses we had for each meal were on it – super friendly and very efficient! As a shrimp and grits enthusiast, I tend to be pretty picky about how they are prepared. Not being a super-fancy place, I didn't have high expectations for this particular restaurant. When they arrived, they appeared overly sauced, but wow, they were seasoned just right and so tasty – exceeding my expectations! My wife ordered "The Islander" and raved about the pancakes being some of the best she'd ever had. Great service and reasonable prices made our trip more enjoyable. We're already looking forward to returning and experiencing both the hotel and the restaurant once more.

I am a hotel staff member and I frequently find myself unable to pack my own lunch. I love that we have such great food just a few steps away! I’m a creature of habit so end up ordering the same chicken dinner as always, but I love that if I ever want to switch things up I can choose either serf or terf! Maybe next time I’ll do both 😉

***Great view, great food*** The Clam Digger is the restaurant that is attached to the Inn at Pine Knoll Shores. I for one love when hotels have attached restaurants. So my son and I made sure to try this place. If you can, try to sit in the room with the windows overlooking the beach. It's a GREAT view, even though the room itself feels empty and plain. The service was GREAT. I ordered a chicken sandwich, and it came with fries. The fries were the best part of the meal. They were so tasty, however the chicken sandwich wasn't lacking either. It was very very good. The prices were also very reasonable.
