Grocery Stores in Ocean Isle Beach, NC

“Beautiful, clean, upscale, well-appointed grocery store. Had good prices (for a beach town) & it was easy on & out with plenty of parking.

Got a loyalty card for the week we were there & it REALLY helped with cost (there were 12 of us & we shared the card. ;)”

“If you are vacationing in OIB and don't want a sit-down restaurant meal every night, consider visiting the Publix deli. The sandwiches are yummy and absolutely huge. We couldn't finish our food in one meal, so we had it for dinner and lunch the next day. I had the Italian sub and my wife got a buffalo chicken sub, which was basically a bread boat filled with chicken. Regular grocery prices are higher than what I'm used to, but tourism, I guess. Some of the product placement seemed odd (how come the paper towels were with the cleaning supplies instead of with the other paper products?), but that’s a minor quibble. The store is clean (except for the golf tee in the men's room sink and I don't want to think about why it was in there or what it was used for), the staff is incredibly friendly, and we would certainly return.”

“What looks like a plain old gas station from the road is actually a good-vibes-only outpost for hungry musicians, fishermen, and beach bums alike. Sheffield’s is our jam whenever we roll through Ocean Isle — fresh local shrimp for the fishin’ line, chicken for the crab pots, and even people food that’ll make you feel like you’re headlining a seafood festival. Grouper, shrimp, crab legs — all fresh and ready to rock.

They’ve got the kind of grocery stash that saves you from driving over the bridge — onions, lemons, spices, kid snacks, and a solid beer and wine selection that hits the right notes every time. Family-owned with friendly staff that treat you like part of the crew.

Our tour pup, Dolly Parton, got her first whiff of pompano, whiting, and even a baby shark (doo doo doo doo) thanks to Sheffield’s bait. Bonus points for fair gas prices and for how much fishing gear they actually have in there—everything you need.

Sheffield’s is the ultimate encore stop for your Ocean Isle gig. keep on jammin’, y’all!”

“Indeed, this is a very classy business, run by a group of people who are 100% professional. I would suggest them to anyone looking for very modern and delicious cuisine. Thank you to the Leavitts and the whole crew at Caviar Star.”

“I love Lowe's Food Store ! I shop at two different locations one being Ocean Isle Beach, NC and the other Little River, SC. Both stores are very well stocked and clean. Associates and staff are very friendly and very helpful. I love the Little River location on Wednesday senior citizens get 5% off the grocery bill unfortunately Ocean Isle Beach does not honor the senior citizens on Wednesday! I also earn five s*** off every hundred I spend for gas which I purchase in Little River at their Lowes Food gas station very convenient!”

“Tienda Mexicana is a family own business! Open everyday of the week 9-10 they never are closed unless it’s for family events ! The owner is a very dedicated grandfather and likes to be there for all his grandchildren events he’s an amazing guy !”

“The employees are always very nice and quick. The only reason I didn't give 5 was bc I've tried a few time to call to ask a question and there was never an answer! The phone just rang and rang and then wen to a busy tone each time. But other than that, I really like the people and the store.”
