We have to agree with Santa Claus on this one: “Christmas Eve is when you spend time with your family.” To enable our incredible staff to spend time with their families, Lost Colony Tavern will always be closed on Christmas Eve & Christmas Day. Cheers to all of you for a safe and happy weekend with the people you love!

We are still processing the loss of a big part of our family…Chef Lovey! An amazing cook, a loyal friend, & Auntie Boo to our kids!

When we reopened 15years ago after losing our Mom to cancer and our restaurant to the fire, Lovey joined our family. We had grown up with and around Lovey and most of her family. She was a huge part of our Family! Her amazing humor, infectious smile, & fun loving personality will be missed beyond words!

If you have enjoyed a Pan Seared Fish or Pasta over the years, she more than likely was on the other side of that plate! Her talent on our line will be missed by all of us at the Lone Cedar!!

Love…we hope you are up their cracking jokes with Dad & Mom and all the ones you love!! We love and miss you…Vic, Line, & your entire Cedar Family❤️

2M Surf Town -- Today marks the sixth year since Mickey McCarthy's passing. He was an epic photographer, carpenter and inventor. This collection was mostly taken around Jennette's Pier during surfing contests, which he loved to cover with his Canon digital SLR and long, fast lenses. The oldest photo in the bunch, where Mickey is peering at top of a film camera, was taken at an ESA contest at First Street in Kill Devil Hills many moons ago. Collection by Daryl Law, pier staff photographer and friend of Mickey.
