The Colington Cafe

It’s just an amazing cozy restaurant where French fusion cuisine takes place . I found it intimate and interesting. I ordered a savory Brie cheese as entree, sea food as main courses, shrimps grilled to perfection and scallops that blow your mind. Their homemade bread it’s warm and tasty, at the end we share a soft crème Brûlée which made my dinner perfect. Their staff is very special and professional service is fast and convenient. I chose this place to celebrate my anniversary and it didn’t disappoint. Thank you guys for making an unforgettable night. Please make your reservation. You will be very satisfied.

We celebrated our 1st wedding anniversary here, and it couldn’t have been more perfect! From the moment we walked in, the staff made us feel so special — kind, attentive, and genuinely courteous throughout the entire evening. Every dish we ordered was absolutely delicious — full of flavor and beautifully presented. The seafood pasta and filet were cooked to perfection! The service was exceptional without ever feeling rushed or overbearing. To top it all off, our waitress Lauren surprised us with a bottle of champagne to celebrate our anniversary, which was such a thoughtful touch and made the night even more memorable. Truly an amazing dining experience from start to finish, thank you Lauren for your wonderful service! we can’t wait to come back! 🥂💛

Collington Café continues to be one of our absolute favorites in the Outer Banks. The food is consistently excellent, and the filet mignon stands out as one of the best I’ve ever had—perfectly cooked, tender, and full of flavor. The service is outstanding, with a team that’s attentive, friendly, and professional. The atmosphere is both unique and cozy, offering a warm, inviting dining experience that feels personal and refined at the same time. We’ve been dining here for years, and each visit reminds us why we keep coming back. Collington Café remains a true local gem, and we’ll continue to return for many years to come.

The Colington Café is such a charming spot! The restaurant is set in a beautifully transformed house, giving it a cozy, intimate feel. Soft background music adds to the atmosphere without making conversation difficult. Service was impeccable from start to finish, and every dish we tried was delicious. The wine list is reasonably priced. A wonderful dining experience overall. Highly recommend!

The Colington Cafe on the Outer Banks of NC was wonderful. We were first time diners there and couldn’t have been happier with our delicious and fresh seafood dinners of grilled tuna (catch of the day) and Cobia with crab cake. Simply outstanding. We started with, and I’m not kidding, the best Caesar salad I’ve ever tasted and delicious She Crab bisque. And our friendly and helpful server, Mariah, made the whole experience perfect! And I’ll add this extra tidbit … on the way out I saw their restaurant cleanliness grade … they got a 100% rating. I don’t think I’ve EVER seen that so thought it was worth a mention. The whole restaurant is neat and clean as a pin. Highly recommend.
