Tommy's Gourmet Market & Wine Emporium

 

Overpriced and very poor selection. Don't bother

 

 

Tommy's is the best place to buy craft beer in the outer banks that I have found so far. It's a bit pricey but the quality is there. Their meat, bread, and cigars are nice as well.

I went in a few days ago and had a great discussion with their beer guy, who was sampling Belhaven Wee Heavy and giving good advice about selecting beer. He got some stuff out of the back when I asked him and helped me pick a best IPA sixer from their mix your own sixer section, which is a huge plus. Unlike most "mix your own sixer" sections, this one wasn't culled of the best stuff and I through together a sextet of Lagunitas, Southern Tier (regular and DIPA), Great Divide Titan, Napa Smith and another strong selection I cannot recall. I can't recall having better choices.

Just a little market but it stands out especially strong here amid the supermarkets and brew thru stuff.

Ahh Tommy's, I love this place. Although it is a bit pricy, this is the best market in Outer Banks area. The place has been a staple in the Outer Banks as long as I can remember.

Tommy's has a great selection of craft brews. They carry the local Weeping Radish, Flying Dog, Stone, Old Speckled Hen, and many others. You won't find any other stores in the area that have this good of a selection.

They also have a great deli food selection, although as I mentioned before it is a bit pricy. However, the food is most certainly quality and always very fresh. I make sure whenever I am in the Outer Banks to stop by Tommy's a few times. If you are ever in the area, be sure to check it out if you get a chance.

Tommy's is a higher-end supermarket, offering, in addition to groceries, butchery and prepared foods. A nice store to browse through.

Quality: The only deal going in Duck. The store is clean and bright with plenty of local and finer food offerings. Beer occupies several coolers in the back, along with on shelf and a display table.

Service: Service isn't a big deal in a market like this. I didn't seek any; nor did I receive any.

Selection: Good selection, no doubt about it. Bell's, Rogue, Lindemans, Carolina Brewery growlers (Flagship IPA), Weeping Radish, Great Divide, Flying Dog, and Old Speckled Hen stand out in my memory. Beyond those, the selection is generous. A nice stop if you're heading to the Duck Deli.

Located in Duck Village on the main road, Tommy's is probably your best bet if you're in Duck. Small gourmet store and deli with a good selection of craft beer mixed in some of the usual, beachy macros. Local/regionals included, Duck Rabbit, Highland, Weeping Radish, St George to name a few. Nationals included Bells, New Belgium, Great Divide, Weyerbacher, Allagash, Stone and DFH and others. Imports had small array of Belgians, Duvel, Chimay, Maradsous plus German imports like Pinkus, Paulaner, Spaten and Weihenstephaner. Overall and a pretty good selection, beats driving up to Corolla to Harris Teeter.
