Located on the boardwalk, they have been making one kind of donut since 1939. And that's all they serve along with soft drinks/coffee. CASH only. The best donut you will ever have (hard to order less than a a half dozen as they melt in your mouth and are always hot and ready). Open late March/early April until the end of summer.
Pro tip: Don't wait in the long line with the rest of the tourists. Just walk right up to the bar, grab a bar stool, and order/pay from the counter. You owe me one ;)

Old school Italian in an Irish Pub atmosphere next to the Kure Beach Pier. Known for a variety of giant pork chop specialties and classic Italian. Go early on your trip and have leftovers for days. It's an intimate atmosphere, so reservations are a must during the season.
Pro Tip:
Get a large jar of their house salad dressing for your fridge.
