The Spot is an obx gem, known for their açaí bowls, smoothies, and ice cream. It's located near the…read morepublic beach in Nags Head, NC. There's plenty of free parking in the lots around the place. There's also plenty of indoor and outdoor seating. The ambiance can be described as cute and casual. There's a couch with a fun neon sign background that's good for pictures. The service is good, we got our smoothies relatively quickly. They were a bit expensive for the area, but were delicious. The hatteras sunset was a bit tangy and the spot-tastic was a good strawberry banana smoothie. This place definitely hits the spot after a day at the beach. I'd recommend coming here if you're looking for a healthy, fresh pick me up while in OBX.

Well, if you want to enjoy yourself here, make sure that you get here really early in the day. If…read moreyou come at...I don't even know what to call it...prime time??? Then you have a massive wait on your hands. Parking is a mess if you plan on driving here and parking. There is a lot, but it gets pretty packed at peak times. There is also street parking, but keep in mind there are homes (rental or not) around and you may need to be mindful with that. Then there is the line. It's an odd experience. Like where does the line truly start and how do you stand in it. The line continues to grow, but it doesn't feel like you are moving. I swear, when I was leaving here, I accidentally drove over an area of grass instead of the entrance to the road. I'm sure I'm not the only one that has ever done that.

I personally laid the rack on the scale myself and it weighed more than the actual ice cream buy or beware they are stealing. Something should be done

We took advantage of a nook outside of the market area, which was nicely shaded with tables and chairs. There was also a lot of comfy seating inside with a couple of nooks furnished with chairs and couches for families to sit in. Past the cafe is a market area with merchandise and wine.
