Simply the Best!! By my own standards, the shrimp burger was to die for. Only wish I had thought to order additional ones to bring home with me. My soulmate introduced me to this place after a couple days at Atlantic Beach, oh my goodness, what a deal, what a meal. Can't wait to return and bring home the goodies to enjoy at later date.
Another life time eater Also born in the old Hospital, and stop in to El's every trip. Living in the Raleigh area now, but any excuse to go to Morehead always includes a stop in to pick up a meal to eat there, and burgers to bring back. Mr. Barts is right, heated up El's is better than any other fresh burger I know. When I was stationed in California, my mother wold bring a dozen frozen superburgers to us. Talk about good eatin in Cali. They lasted for 6 days.
best super burger I was born in Morehead at the old Morehead hospital. You can bet when I come back home to see my sisters that my family and I have to stop to El's. I would rather eat there than the Sanitary or Captain Bills. My daughters (3) all were surprised the first time that we took them to El's. They all said What's this place?.... and we want to go to McDonald's. Not any more. my youngest daughter is 18 and she can not wait to take her new boyfriend to eat at El's. Yes we always take several burgers back with us. Wa... read more
Shrimp Burgers and more! Great Local food! My husband loved thier shrimp burger and fries! Good Service. It took a little while to get the food though.
Shrimp Burger, Shrimp Burger, Shrimp Burger!!! El's may be home of the Super Burger, but I love the Shrimp Burger and make sure I time my arrival into Atlantic Beach to have lunch at El's. It is a tradition and it is an art to park in the proper circle, not too close to the door and allowing a proper exit for the next departure.
NOSTALGIC DRIVE INN CHEESE BURGER IS GREAT
Best little drive In I'm from Va and every time we visit Morehead City, El's Drive In is a MUST. There isn't any burger better than their's. So good I had to make them a fan page on my facebook and have many members join.
Old Fashioned Fun This is a great way to have good food and fun at the same time. Sit in your car and let them deliver food to you. Its delicous food in a fun atmosphere.
Remember being served by a car-hop? El's Drive-In has been around for years. It's like one of those little hole in the wall places where you drive up and you are served in your car. My favorite here is the shrimp burger - toally awesome. Service is quick and friendly and the prices are good.
