Phillippi Creek is the perfect waterfront destination for gathering with family and friends. The award-winning Phillippi Creek restaurant will feature the regular menu with additional specials like fresh Stone Crabs, baked stuffed seafood, fresh steamed oysters, and oysters on the half-shell and Seafood boats for two along with a traditional Turkey Dinner for those craving the flavors of the holiday. For over 40 years, the “Creek” as locals like to call it, has been a favorite to gather for the freshest seafood, cocktails, and daily specials for lunch and dinner. Large parties without reservations are welcome for al fresco dining or can enjoy one of the larger tables indoors. Whether early lunch, late afternoon family meal, or a cozy dinner for two, Phillippi Creek is your destination to enjoy the holiday. Before or after Thanksgiving, be sure to get an early start to the holiday shopping by stopping in at Creekside Traders for beautiful gifts ranging from hand-painted glassware, stylish hats, earrings, and beach toys. The island gift shop, located next to Phillippi Creek Oyster Bar, also sells bottled beer and wine. For more information, please visit: http://creeksidetrader.com/
