They have the variety of beef cuts from flanks to NY strips, bone-in ribeyes, and tomahawks, filets as well as ground beefs. In addition, they have all your pork products including store-made sausage meats and links. Of course there is also a selection of chicken as well as cured ham and pork products, and cheeses from Jennette Brothers. The staff is quite friendly and I definitely look forward to coming back again and again. Entrance changed to Poindexter Street instead of N Water Street. There is a fenced in gravel lot on that side.

We purchased three ribeyes…read moreand they were suggested and agreed with 1lb of "breakfast" sage sausage, and a pound of hotdogs. We prepared the steaks last night and they were phenomenal! Beyond fresh, marbled to perfection, they were delicious. This morning I cooked the sausage and made a cinnamon roll sausage egg bake and also absolutely delicious. It's certainly a warehouse type facility, so don't expect fancy decor, but we will be back. The service, the pricing, and the food were all top notch!!

We stopped by Frog Island Seafood Restaurant & Market today on our way home from Nags Head…read more Don't let the outside fool you--they're practicing some serious culinary magic in the kitchen here. Lauren, our bartender, took great care of us from the moment we sat down. She was friendly, attentive, and happy to answer our questions while offering several excellent menu suggestions. My wife chose the crab cakes, served with two sides and hush puppies. She paired them with green beans and fried okra, and she enjoyed every bite. These weren't the typical crab cakes that rely on breadcrumbs and filler. Instead, they were packed with sweet, fresh crab meat and just enough binder to hold everything together. That's exactly how a crab cake should be. The fried okra arrived piping hot with a wonderfully crisp exterior while remaining tender and flavorful inside--that magical kind of cooking that leaves you wondering, "How did they do that?" The hush puppies were equally impressive. Had the portions not been so generous, we probably would have ordered another basket. I ordered the soft-shell crab and shrimp platter with fries and green beans, which happened to be the day's special. After tasting it, I completely understood why. The soft-shell crab was perfectly seasoned, crisp, hot, and absolutely delicious. The shrimp were cooked just as well. I'm a sucker for good cocktail sauce, and they certainly serve a good one here. The surprising part? This seafood simply didn't need it. I enjoyed every bite exactly as it came--no sauce required. One additional surprise was the seafood market attached to the restaurant. Their display cases were stocked with fresh local seafood at very reasonable prices. If you're looking to bring home fresh fish or shrimp after your meal, it's worth taking a few extra minutes to browse the market before you leave. We finished our meal with a pleasant conversation with Lauren, and it was the perfect ending to an excellent lunch. If you find yourself traveling to or from Nags Head, do yourself a favor and stop at Frog Island Seafood Restaurant & Market. I think you'll leave just as pleasantly surprised as we were.

Passing by this place on our way back from Outerbank to VA…read more Here are what we tried- Fried frog legs - 5/5. It's super moist and tender! Better than any other frog legs I had since it is usually tougher meat. Calamari - 5/5. Light batter, fresh, and soft! Fried soft crab sandwich - 4/5. The soft crab is amazing. The bread just relatively slightly bigger than the crab so there are bites I only have bread. But the flavor is very good! Oyster & shrimp basket - 4/5. This was the daily special item when we ordered. The shrimp was big and oyster was good. Just think the oyster is smaller than expected but good flavor overall. We had fried okra on the side, it was good but wish there is a bit more salt. Cocktail sauce, ketchup is placed on each table so it was helpful and convenience. We could not find where the napkins were for the longest time, then realized it was right next to the food pick up spot The food came out in reasonable time. Also learned that u can actually order ahead on their online platform then pick it up! I found it super convenient as our friends did that and got their food super fast!

A small shop but also offers some frozen items and now has beer and wine. They do a really good job and we usually always buy our fresh meats there now. It is a good idea to call ahead because they do sell out of items, especially the fantastic whole organic chickens. If your anywhere near Cape Charles this is the place to buy your fresh meats. They also have things like fresh Turkey wings, and pork chops.

Layden's Supermarket - A Meat Lover's Paradise!…read more I would highly recommend Layden's Supermarket to anyone looking for top-quality meats and a unique shopping experience. They have the best steaks, chicken, pork chops, and sausages around always fresh and packed with flavor. One of the things I love most is that they'll cut steaks, luncheon meat, and ham exactly to your liking. making sure you get just what you want. Their prices are a great value for the quality you're getting, and the selection is so much better than anywhere else I've shopped. Besides the incredible meat choices, Layden's also offers some grocery staples, homemade candy, sodas, and even smoked whole ham legs perfect for anyone who enjoys a little something extra. Every time I visit North Carolina, I make it a point to stop by Layden's and stock up on as much meat as I can fit in my freezer even if it means driving six to eight hours drive! It's always worth the trip and the money. And let me tell you, the chicken drumsticks are so big, I can only eat one at a time! If you're a fan of fresh, flavorful meats and love discovering specialty grocery items, Layden's Supermarket is absolutely the place to go. The place is so clean and the staff and employees are so friendly and welcoming. Thank you so much from us WV.
