Ah yes....my concept of what heaven looks like. Of course there is a golf course right outside the front door. Nothing fancy. Maybe Pebble Beach.
I’ve been there with my dad, a few years ago! Mackey’s Landing Gun Shop is truly an amazing store.
And the Cypress Grill is a landmark in these parts. I used to go eat fried herring there with my grandpa from the time I was a teenager, up until he died in my mid 20’s. Good times.
Herring & guns ping!
For those of us who grew up thinking of herring as a pickled hors d'oeuvre, North Carolina river herring is a shock. For one thing, it looks like a fish. And for another, it really, really tastes like a fish. Not the least bit like chicken or anything else. If you like fish, you will love it. And there is no better place to love it than at the Cypress Grill on the banks of the Roanoke River. Here is the last of the old-time herring shacks, quite literally a cypress wood shack, open only for the herring run, January through April...
Overall: Worth driving from anyplace
