Country Deli

Located in Kill Devil Hills, this restaurant is known for dishing out incredible — and very filling — sandwiches. Country Deli is located at 1900 S. Croatan Highway. Here's what the site had to say:

"Country Deli, located on the state's Outer Banks line of barrier islands, is famous for its overstuffed sandwiches — which are so big that customers often save half for later. Generous fillings include BLT and delicious cheeses, while the cookies, Rice Krispie treats, and ice cream sandwiches are popular too. There's also a range of deli foods on sale, mostly from local producers. Planning on visiting? Don't forget that the deli closes fro the winter season (from late December to early February) each year."
