We drive from Michigan to Ocracoke Island, now making it a two day trip. Always look forward to…read morecrossing into NC and stopping for gas and chicken at Border Crossing. We've made this stop almost annually for two decades. Some reviews indicate the place may have gone through management changes and certainly, the interior has been remodeled and better organized in recent years. The southern food in this store has been a legend in the past, but seems to have fallen out of favor as of late. Well, we've rolled with the changes and continue to look forward to this stop. It's the chicken that makes the stop for us. Made in small batches throughout the day, we've always found it hot, juicy, crispy and perfectly seasoned. We might add various sides or none at all; this review is more focused on the chicken. Today, we added wedge fries that were seasoned similarly to the chicken, hot and fresh. Nothing makes a visit to NC better than really good fried chicken. Border's is as good as it gets and you have the option of getting it so many different ways: individual pieces, dinners or family combinations. Today's staff were friendly, efficient and helpful. The cook came out from around the back and warned us that she just made this batch and it would be hot. She reminded us of my husband's mother, so she had our vote of confidence right away. The dining room had many seats to choose from; typical in and out seating with self-serve drinks. Looked to be tidy and more or less clean. We always use the restrooms and never have to wait. They were clean though dated. I'm fine with that. The convenience store has snacks goods and a whole lot of souvenir-type items. Not our thing but if that is what you want, the selection is sure to please. Don't forget to stop by the little produce stand located on the north side of the driveway. Mostly local, good pickings. Today the peaches were in and super sweet. Yum. If you want dining with ambience, Borders isn't your place. If you want really good chicken, fast and fresh, don't miss this stop.

I emailed them, expressing my interest in a few items. While I didn't expect a response until they were open, Fran invited me to stop by anyway (we had already departed the OBX). She was kind enough to process our order and ship it safely and securely to us. Again, all before they opened for the season! We were so very pleased with our purchases and the kind service. This continued today when Fran realized that they had charged us twice for our order, something I hadn't realized. She had issued a refund as soon as she learned about this and emailed me the receipt. Again, what an exceptional level of Customer service. We look forward to visiting Duck again and visiting with the good folks at Duck General Store in person!

If you're heading to the beach and realize you forgot sunscreen, drinks, snacks, or need a bag of ice, this is an easy place to stop. It's convenient, well-stocked, and the staff has always been friendly and efficient. I was also lucky enough to get one of their donuts before they sold out. Now I understand why people say to get there early. They're absolutely worth the hype and apparently don't last much past 8:00 in the morning. Sometimes the best places aren't trying to be anything more than what they are. Sandbridge Market is a dependable neighborhood shop with great service, excellent donuts, and everything you need before a day at the beach. I'll definitely keep stopping in whenever I'm in the area.
