The restaurant is open for Lunch and Dinner on a daily basis and offers an award-winning Brunch every Sunday from 9am to 3pm. Chilli Peppers was founded in 1993 by community man Jim Douglas. It wasn't his first successful venture, nor his most iconic. Nonetheless, it’s one of the best-known and loved restaurants on the Outer Banks. If you aren’t yet acquainted with Douglas’s other brainchildren, those claims may seem contradictory — but they’re sound! You see, in addition to his entrepreneurial involvement in other local restaurants and real estate, Jim Douglas created the (literally) world-famous ‘OBX’ acronym. Short of the Wright Brothers, there may never be a more recognized brand born on this island. All this considered, Chilli Peppers is one in a collection of highly touted projects for which Jim’s par is excellence. Chilli Peppers Nightlife Outer Banks Chilli Peppers is known for its role in the busy Outer Banks nightlife scene. Plus it's one of the island’s few venues to offer late-night eats to complement its expansive beer and cocktail selection. The steamed munchies menu is available nightly starting at 9pm. Come have a drink, and a bite whenever the mood strikes!
