Down by the River!

Unless you grew up in smalltown Eastern NC, it is not likely you aquired a taste for the "fishy" fish, Herring on the banks of the Roanoke River! You might not have ever heard of the Cypress Grill built in 1936!   But, The Cypress Grill is actually famous and is one of the last fish shacks!

You will see "YES, WE'RE OPEN" if you go between January and Easter Monday!

 The Herring do not run the Roanoke like they did in the glory days, now the fish served also come from the Albemarle sound and Chowan river.  Go for the experiance and if herring is not your thing, order shimp, catfish or oysters. They also serve Rock Stew made with stripped river bass!  No Alcohol served!

I promise you will not be disappointed even if you order only the Chocolate pie or one of the other homemade pies, coconut or lemon! 
It is worth a trip down by the river,
Carolina Style!

The end of the season is celebrated in Jamesville with the NC Herring Festival April 22-24th!

Enjoy your Day, Carolina Style! Jen Jen
