At Coastal Smoothie Cafe, we have created a menu and atmosphere that is designed to be as unique as the northern shores of the Outer Banks. Our creations utilize fresh local produce when possible. There is nothing better than local NC strawberries, blackberries or blueberries. Make sure to try our Carolina peaches. From our amazing acai bowls and smoothies to our signature sandwiches and wraps you simply won’t find anything like Coastal Smoothie Cafe.

Acai Bowls
The acai berry has been known for centuries as a healing, immune-stimulating, energy-boosting fruit that is packed full of antioxidants. Every bowl contains 100% pure, grade "A" organic acai that we source straight from the northern region of the Amazon Jungle in Brazil.

Smoothies
All of our smoothies are made with fresh fruits & vegetables (many of which are grown locally), all natural ingredients and dietary supplements, making sure you leave with the best smoothie.

Sandwiches, Wraps and Avocado Toast
Just like with our smoothies, all of our sandwiches, wraps and avocado toast are made with fresh locally grown vegetables, high quality meats, all natural ingredients, and are accented with our home-made sauces and dressings.

Breakfast Burritos
Choice of bacon, sausage or ham with an egg and cheese on an everything bagel or an English muffin.

Coffee
We source the finest and freshest coffee beans which are roasted and ground locally from Corolla's Kind Cup for all of our coffee options.

Our History

Coastal Smoothie Cafe is a family owned and operated business located in Duck North Carolina. The Outer Banks has always been a special place for our family. Our roots were planted early in 1970 when our grandparents bought land and built one of the first houses in Ocean Sands with only a promise that one day there would be electricity and roads. We were very little but I can still remember passing through the old guard gate at the Currituck/Dare county line. That's right around the area where the road ended and the magic began! Sandy "roads" and endless bare dunes that we would spend hours exploring. From old ship wreck remains to wild Spanish mustangs...you never knew what you might find.

Belinda Pleva grew up serving ice cream out of her parent’s shop. She loved being part of what she calls “a happy business.” “I love it when people come into the shop and you hand them something, and it makes them smile,” Pleva says. “That moment when you hand an ice cream cone over to a little kid and their eyes just light up. That’s what I love about the ice cream business.”

 

In 1994, Pleva opened up her own ice cream and chocolate shop, Big Buck’s Ice Cream, in the brand-new Timbuk II Shopping Center in Corolla. Business was good, but something was missing.

 

“I was never satisfied with the ingredients in the ice creams and chocolates you could purchase back then. I wanted to serve my customers delicious flavors with ingredients they could actually pronounce,” Pleva says.

 

Pleva took a trip to Italy to study the gelaterias. She fell in love with the incredible flavors, and when she returned home to the Outer Banks, she began working tirelessly to perfect the flavors in her own ice cream.

 

Big Buck’s homemade ice cream combined the flavors of the Italian gelaterias and the richness of American ice cream. It quickly became a tourist favorite. After having the same unsatisfactory experience with the readymade chocolates she was selling, she also took a trip to Brussels to learn more about making handmade chocolates. Pleva brought the chocolate-making experience right back with her, and the result was the finest quality of chocolates on the Outer Banks.

 

After her huge success in the Corolla shop, Pleva was able to open up three more shops—one in Kitty Hawk, one in Manteo and one in Duck.
